Dear Society,
You are seriously messed up. And I'm going to tell you why. Society, the world, and pretty much anything you can think of excludes people, makes them feel worthless. All the messages we get are that we have to be perfect. We have to be pretty, skinny, smart, sporty, and normal. Who the hell deserves to feel that they aren't pretty? Everyone is beatiful in their own way. Just because they don't look like your definition of perfect doesn't mean that they aren't just as worthy. No one deserves to feel worthless. Everyone is talented at something, everyone has something to give. Every single person.
So what I would like to say to you is this: Society, you are fucked up, not us. Not me. Not anyone. Just because someone doesn't meet your standards doesn't mean that they should be exiled. Soon, the bar to meet perfection will be so high, that no one will be able to reach it. And what then? What will happen then? Perfect shouldn't be the goal. It's impossible to attain. Being happy with who you are, doing what's right, and being honest should be.
Sincerely,
Noelle
(and every one who's become a victim of "perfection")
