A Little More Of Me: About Me

I don't know if people will want to read a blog about me. But I felt like writing this, so bare with me.

As Gandhi said, “Whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it’s very important that you do it.”

So here I am. I'm not really someone you would point out in a crowd, but I'm definitely a little bit different (hence, the blogs name).

Everyone strives to be different. They can really only achieve that if they're themselves. Being someone else isn't an option. Focus on being you, and then you'll hit the "originality" mark along the way.

I'm not saying I have the whole "being myself" thing down. I still mess up. I feel like sometimes, if I be who I really am, I'll get laughed at, shunned, etc. So I just plaster a smile on my face, nod my head, and agree with whatever someone's saying. And sometimes that's what people want- For you to be their "yes men".

Don't let them do that. Tell other people what you think. Don't just nod your head at what someone's saying if you think it's stupid. Be yourself. If someone can't accept you for who you are, then find people who will. Acceptance isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Since I've gotten to high school, I've realized I'd rather sit by myself or be "uncool" than change for a "friend" who won't accept me for who I am-that was one of the best decisions I've ever made. And I have sat alone, I've met people who've left me, who've taken me and pushed me away. I've also met some who are true friends and take me as I am (a little crazy, weird, different).

I guess if you want to get all cheesy about it, this a blog about my life, who I am, and finding myself.
