I've gotta be me.

I understand that everyone is different but I hate that people get hurt because of it. The thing that upsets me the most though, is when people get shunned or discriminated against because of race, sexual preference, appearance, disability, etc. Yesterday I had somebody make fun of one of my friends because of her teeth and another one of my friends because of her weight. What is the point of attacking others insecurities?! Because everyone has insecurities and everyone is different in EVERY way.

I understand that this is how the world works, but can't I be upset about it? It's only gotten worse, and it keeps going farther down hill as time goes on. No one respects anyone else and it's sad. People thrive to hurt others; it's a vicious cycle. Why can't everyone just accept that we are all who we ARE. You're not me, and you never will be. You are YOU. So take care of yourself and don't worry about what I'm doing.

Nothing you do will stop me from being myself. You have to push on and ignore the yells of others. People are going to laugh and people are going to make fun but you can't let them win. If you stop doing certain things just to make others happy then most likely YOU won't be happy and isn't that the most important thing? I suppose it all depends on what you think the point of life is. I think the point is to live life to the fullest and have fun. If all you care about is what other people think, then you aren't living life for yourself; you're living life for them. There is no way that anyone can change my mind or views.; in this sense, I've gotta be me.
