There will never be anyone else like you in the future. There has never been anyone exactly like you ever since life began.

That’s why being yourself is more important than anything else; not something that should hold you back from doing something.

I believe that one of the hardest about being a teen is acceptance. We want others to put up with who we are and admit to our very personalities. Yet, how can we be ourselves when others will judge what we do and how we do them?

One of the most absurd traits of man that I have ‘hated’ all throughout my years of existence is their ‘judge mentality.’ They would waste their time critiquing how you act, how you wear your clothes, and whenever there’s something wrong about you. They would talk about you for decades like you’re another extraordinary science discovery.

As a result, I believe that satisfying people’s expectations on somebody drives one to be always the same with others. Yet, why not be someone unique?

It sucks to be weird and clumsy and different, I know. But I believe that our very own uniqueness is what shapes our identity into something genuine and wonderful.

Life is always a struggle of originality. It is a struggle for our own identity. People will always make an impression out of who we are. But I believe that living with these impressions is more of like making a fool out of ourselves.
