No one else can ever be you. You are unique and no matter what others say, unique is the best of things. I used to try to please these people. I would wear what they wore, say what they would say, and do what they did. I felt controlled and like I could never be happy unless I was EXACTLY like them. My true self was hidden from others, all they saw was a robot of someone else. I had no clue how to dig out of this hole that I buried myself in so deeply.
I turned to poems and music for advice. That's one of the best things that I have ever done for myself. I felt as though the poems and the songs gave me the strength I needed to be me! I slowly began to know myself, trust myself, love myself, and be myself! From this, I learned the biggest lesson of all; happiness doesn't come with a manual, happiness comes from within yourself. I made new friends who liked me for me, who didn't make me be someone I'm not. I laughed more, and I no longer felt controlled. In my heart, I knew that as long as I believed in myself, I could do anything I set my heart to.
If you don't learn anything from this blog, at least know this; NO ONE is YOU-ER than YOU. You are the only other you, and it's about time the world knows that too. Prove those people wrong, show them that life can be run without a manual. Most of all prove to them that you are unique, and unique is the best of things.
