It's not about finding yourself

Or being who you want to be

or not being anybody else.

It's not about being the one that does the right thing,

Or being the one that is bashed and humiliated by the masses of people.

It's about being who you think you should be.

The one that is honest,

and humble,

and never tries to harm others.

It's about not putting people down,

and not stealing, or lying.

It's about gathering knowledge of the world

And making it a part of yourself.

It's about learning from your parent's mistakes.

It is not about seeking perfection,

because there is no such thing,

But about being the best person you can potentially be,

without being no one but yourself.
