I have always been a different kind of girl. I think differently, feel differently about things, and act differently than most people. And I'm okay with that. I love how my heart is able to speak through my mouth and impact people for the better. I love how when something is going on that is inappropriate or something I don't believe in seeing or doing, I have the character and the confidence to exclude myself. I don't have to force a smile or fake a good time, while I swallow hard to choke down my conscience. I try my best to express how I feel to people even when there doesn't seem to be the right words. And I stumble through, walking away with my foot in my mouth, and replay it over in my head again and again. But it doesn't scare me. I fight for what's right, always...not just when it's beneficial for my well being. In fact fighting for what is right in this world often means putting your self interest out there for ridicule. But I don't care. So I'm different...weird....a "freak".
And in life some people will say that when you know who you are and you fight for what you beleive in, that you're a bitch. Even if they know deep down in their hearts how you really are; and maybe they actually admire you for that, maybe they are even jelous about it. But sometimes they will choke down their conscience and and close their ears to the words their hearts are speaking to them, and they will utter the most despicable synonym they can find for the word strong.
I say so be it. Because you have to be true to your heart. And you don't have to apologize for who you are. And if you stick it out long enough, you will find that not everyone in life is like that...and you will form amazing relationships and friendships that last a lifetime.
Love,
Forever and Always,
