An individual

June 14, 2014
By Anonymous

We are human
We make mistakes
And we question ourselves
But have you asked the most important question?
Who are you?
Why are you special?
You’re just like the rest of them
You all share one mind
Think the same
But you think wrong
Because no one is the same
So dare to be more
I dare you to be you

It seems in High School everyone just wants to fit in. People change themselves until not even they recognize who they used to be. I say that's wrong. I say being yourself is the most beautiful thing you can be.
