Be yourself. No one else is worth being because the world already has one of them.


Conform.
Be like everyone else.
If you’re different,
you’re ugly.

Don’t be unique.
Don’t be yourself.
That’s wrong.
That’s society.

We let society,
be our judge.
When the only real judge,
is ourself.

‘Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.’
Society isn’t the beholder,
we are.

Be yourself,
dance as if no one is watching,
love as if you’ll never hurt,
sing as if no one is listening,
laugh until it hurts,
cry until you have nothing left...

But...
never ever,
let someone else judge,
who you are.
Never ever,
let someone else say,
what you can and can’t do.

Be who you want.
Be what you want.
Just don’t be society.

My own personal bullying is what made me write this. It happens constantly.
