The Middle

Ello er'body

Self doubt/Self conscientiousness. It can sometimes be a bit overwhelming. Changing yourself just to please everybody else, or hiding parts of yourself is usually the result. There are problems with this you see:

1) Changing yourself on purpose means loosing yourself. You are not who you are anymore, you are someone else. What is the point of existing if you are not truly living?

2) Hiding parts of who you are just makes you feel closed. You need to spread your wings and fly, but you need your whole wing to fly, or it ain't gonna work. So do not be ashamed of your wings, no matter what colour, size or pattern they are. They are apart of you so flaunt it baby!

3) Even if you were successful in changing yourself, you can't possibly please everyone you meet, so no matter what you do, there are going to be people who don't like you. And that's cool, cause I am sure there are people you don't like either. So at least let them dislike you for you, and not for someone you are pretending to be.

Yep, being yourself is hard and sometimes it does suck. There will be times where you just want to break down and give it up. But remember, being you is so much better than being someone else. At least you feel comfortable in your actions and you have nothing to hide. It's good for your soul! You are much more fulfilled if you live this way.

Now on a less serious front, PARAMORE IN EXACTLY A WEEK!! Trust me, I will be nothing but myself then...I feel sorry for my friends. I still feel like it's not happening, it just seems too good for real life...I am seeing Paramore...live. What are you doing next week? Seeing Paramore. SEEE....it doesn't seem right, I am so appreciative of this opportunity though, I thank God everyday haha!
