Socially Unaccepted
Dear Socially Unaccepted
Let me guess, you wish the world was perfect. You wish for days when nothing could break your smile. You wish to be surrounded by people that only make you stronger. You wish you could feel comfortable in your own set of eyes, your own smile, your nose, legs, stomach; Yourself. Some days more than others do you wish for a clean slate. There is no one to blame for your feeling, rather the idea of perfection.
You wish the world was perfect. Money wouldn’t matter, forgiveness unlimited, fame a myth and perfection obliterated. Disease being punishment – rare in a world without flaw. You imagine this as an oxymoron of a place. Demonstrating the exact reason why such a place could never be. It’s simply complicated: in a perfect world, perfect would not exist.
The sad truth is the idea of perfection engraved in many. Luckily, you have a power, a power unique to you. You have the ability to create your own definition of perfection. Set your own standards and reach your own goals. Don’t waste time trying to fit a cookie cutter shape the press highlights. Stop trying to be extraordinary and just be extra ordinary. The best thing is, your ordinary, is unique, elegant, bold, and extraordinary in a way very special to you.
Don’t change,
Someone Who Cares
