Be Yourself not someone else

Alright so we are all different and not one of us is the same for there is always something off that we have that no one else has or can do  yet it seems everyone is trying to be like this person or that person and it’s not as we should be. Why well those who act like someone else aren’t truly happy there is always something missing within their life’s and that something missing is the ability to be one’s self. You know those kids that are so “cool” And how they continuously bug people or make fun of people for being from them.  Well I will let you know something. You’re stronger than them and if you are one of them you should really open your eyes to the reality around you.  By taking off that mask you hide behind to just being yourselves. Taking the criticism thrown upon you, you become stronger and stronger and it will help for when you get older.

Labels are but labels that the media has given us. The label is not what maters it’s the person that is on the inside that does. So many people are missing what matters. So many people are looking to the way people dress to the size and shape of that person.  Yet no one is seeing the person for who they are on the inside. It’s like a one glance thing. If they don’t look the way you want them to, they’re not worth talking to in fact they are worth making fun of.  Come on people what are your problems cant you see just how badly this is hurting the individual that you are putting this upon? Do you ever stop to think if what you’re about to say or do to this person is worth it?

Telling people their emo because their depressed but do you ever think to stop and maybe ask what’s wrong instead of calling them a cry baby or telling them to go kill themselves... Do you ever think that the reason they are so sad could be so powerful that those words would be all it would take for them to end their life... Ever think maybe that person is so weak so upset so lonely that all they really want is a friend...Maybe someone to listen?  Of course not we have to be cool and to be cool we make fun of the weak. But guess what, you’re not cool you’re not cool at all in fact your making a fool out of yourselves in front of a crowd of people.

I admit I am what everyone would call an emo, goth, geek, bookworm, fatty whatever they can think off I have been called it over and over all through high school and it has driven me insane to the point of where I attempted suicide and could have died over it. I began to cut myself first for attention and now for pleasure. Does this make me emo? No it’s called a masochist it’s someone that finds pleasure out of pain it may be weird but hey everyone’s different.  But I used to be that kid that pretended to smile at everything, I used to be that kid that would cry when no one was looking the one that just wanted the bullying to end. But it continued and still does but I know now to live with it realizing I am better than them for I am not afraid to be who I am while they are.

So while they are in constant fear of losing their reputation we are living up to ours. While they have to live under constant guilt and karma we are living up to our own better positivity. So to all those who go through this hold your head up and be strong. Be yourself and ignore those who can’t. To all those who are the bully. What are you doing? Is it worth it? Is it worth being a liar?  Is it worth hurting and driving many people off the edge? Is it worth killing someone on the inside... You’re ruining peoples lives. Is it really worth it?
