Stand Up!

December 16, 2014
By Anonymous

Society always seems to have a say on what we do.
Don't do that! No stop, that's wrong!
Tired of being judged.
Tired of being told to be myself yet still be told it isn't right.
Tired of receiving weird looks because I decided to wear stripes and zebra print.
But it's time to make a change and also say no! Stand up and speak your mind!
Enough is finally enough.

Wear what you want because it is who you are.
If you idolize Miley Cyrus and want to dress like her,
You strut down the hallway like you own it because you do.
Feel comfortable with yourself because soon enough others will look in the mirror
and realize they want to do the same.

Don't be the person that's shy of letting people know who you are,
whether it be sexuality, personality, or that rockin' new outfit hiding in the back of your closet.

Just Do It.

WHO CARES?
Who cares what people think of your outfit, they aren't wearing it, you are!
Who cares if someone is throwing negative comments at you!
Society should not form who we are or what we do or how we do things!

You will never be able to please society because in the end society includes every single person's opinion.

Screw society because the one opinion that actually matters

is

YOURS.
