Ecstatic

.52.

 I hate that people aren't doing what they desire, that they're not putting on the piece of clothing they want to wear because they are afraid that they will be labeled as something they're not even more, I hate how people are labeled, or label others—too fat, too skinny, ugly, pretty. Life doesn't have labels, but it keeps on happening. Life isn't black and white, but that’s how we insist on painting it. I hate how kids grow up always feeling the need to cover up, not to truly express themselves, afraid that they will be judged. They will never know the feeling of being themselves without being judged; they will always have that judge inside their minds, constantly reminding them that they’re not good enough, they need to cover themselves up.

These kids are ticking bombs, waiting to go off.

I wish life was different, that our society wasn't like this. Instead of looking in the mirror searching for imperfections, we should be showing off our perfections. If you're afraid of doing something, you should go for it, rather than looking back and saying: "I wish I had done that," we should be able to say: "I did that, and I’m glad!”

Why don’t we make sure the coming generation doesn't even know the word "imperfection" exists, that they learn that labels don’t exist—and instead of painting the world black and white, they paint the world any colors but black and white.

I want them to do anything they desire, without feeling that they will be judged.
