How To Be Like Somebody: Don't

Everywhere I go, I can hear about people being insecure and don't love themselves enough...

"I'm not skinny enough."
"I wish I have a body like hers."
"I'm too fat."
"I'm so ugly."
"Being ugly must be my talent."

Those are just some common lines that are being said by most people. Reason? People are too judgmental.

"Ugh. Look at her. Does she even belong here?"
"Ew. What are you wearing?"
"HAHAHA! You're so fat!"

I recall waiting for my food in the mall then this group of girls were standing behind me then I heard one of them say "Let's go judge people" and you know what, they are really really really lucky that there are a lot of people in the mall or else I would have given them a lecture. I can never forget that moment because the feeling I had that time was unexplainable.

But come to think of it, being judged cannot be escaped. It's already in the human nature, agree? Everyone judges, even me, but that doesn't mean it can't be controlled.

You're skinny? People might think that your parents don't feed you well.
You're fat? People will laugh at you about it.
You're kind to people? People can see it as flirting.
You're too mean? People think that you're rude and does't have respect.
You're too silent? People will think you're an anti-social and weird.
You're too loud? People will call you annoying.

Those are the barricades and reasons why people choose to be somebody else than being themselves. They are trying too hard to fit in.

Well you know what? Don't think that you're out-of-place, don't think that you're alone. People will love you for who you are.
People are telling you that you're different? Well stand up and tell them "So what? I'm limited edition."

Be proud of who you really are. Like what they say "It's better to be hated for who you really are than to be loved for someone who you are not". Do you guys agree with me?

You're skinny?
You're fat?
You're too kind to people?
You're too mean?
You're too silent?
You're too loud?

So what? Are you the only one in this world that's like that? Everyone can be skinny, anyone can be fat, anyone can be kind and so on. Is there something wrong with that? No. Will the world be destroyed because of that? No.Will dinosaurs exist again because of that? No.

You see? There's nothing wrong with who you are. YOU ARE BORN THAT WAY.

Take a look at your mirror.

What do you see?

I may not be seeing it but I see it as a beautiful person. You are beautiful and believe that.Don't let others make you think otherwise.

Take it all off. Take all of your insecurities off. Don't think about what others think about you because honestly, there's no such thing as perfection. People will always look for your flaws and you'll just waste your time from becoming perfect.
Nobody's perfect but you can be perfect in someone's eyes.

Do what you love,do what you want. So what if you don't have a good voice? If singing is what you love then go for it! So what if you're not ranked as number one in class? You can be better in your own way.
and...


So what if you're not crowned as the most beautiful? If you're happy about what you're doing, then go for it. Spread your wings, don't conceal anything.

Now. Stand in front of your mirror and tell yourself you are beautiful. Take everything that hides the true you.

Smile. Be free. :)

If You Have Thoughts About Suicide (Like Me)

If you have been crying in your room all night wishing to end everything, If you have been waking up thinking if you can make it through today, If your thoughts are louder than the sound of your friends pounding and endlessly knocking on your door begging you to open up, If you have ever faked your smiles and your "i'm okay's" so you don't end up crying while telling someone how you really feel, If you have ever felt like a burden to anyone that you think the best way is to disappear, and If you've ever felt too much that you need to feel something burning on your skin to remind you that you are alive, you are not alone. I thought I was going to be okay. I was healing. I was meeting with my psychiatrist once every month. I buy my medicines every week and take them regularly and on time. I was on track. I was going to be okay. Or so I thought. My family does not understand "depression" and "anxiety". They don't understand w...

Take Them Away From Suicide

I know most of us have thought about this act. Suicide. What makes us think about this?  Yes. Problems, problems, problems. We all think that dying is the gateway to solving whatever life throws at us. No existence, no problem! NO more bullying, no more stress. You're free! But... What do we gain from being dead? We'll have nothing to do but look at all these people breathing, talking, eating, running, walking, LIVING. Doing all the things that you can do no more.  I don't know what it feels like to be dead (because I still get to post these stuffs) but look at it this way... You're dead. You're a ghost. You see your family weeping over you because you killed yourself. You wanted to hug them and tell them that you're gonna be okay, but you cant, and you're not even close to being okay. You look to your left and you see your classmates, friends, and teachers whom you thought will never go to your funeral, but you see them th...
