You know, I think girls have it harder than boys when it comes to strength. Either, we aren't strong and we appear weak and the clique girly girl who can't do anything, or we try to be strong and get overlooked because it's kinda expected from us....so what do we do?
Do we just give in and look weak, do we do both, or do we just pretend everything's okay so we seem like we're avoiding it completely. Society's a bitch. We can't do some things that make us feel better because we'd be labeled a stupid title like bitch, slut, whore, or, the most painful (at least to me), even when you know your not, weak. Girls get held to impossibly high standards in shit that doesn't matter. We have to be skinny because that's what a fucking magazine said is in. We have to have a "thigh-gap" because that's what a rich-ass magazine said is attractive. NEWS FLASH!! Almost nobody is going to live up to these expectations. It's impossible to meet and has made so many people, especially girls, anorexic or bulimic, bot to mention the low self-esteem and body image. You know what, FUCK MEDIA!!!! What have they ever done for us except tell us the unimportant and negative shit in our world. What about the good things, like the fact that you're still alive, we have life, we can do almost anything we want to, WE ARE HUMAN!!! And because of that, we will make mistakes, we will fucking do things that we will fucking regret, we will cry, we will, help out, we will annoy/get annoyed by people, but that's okay. You don't have to be perfect, perfect's boring. If you're prefect, what's there to know, to discover, to make you unique? I'm not saying to not strive for it, just remember that perfect isn't original. Plenty of people have achieved great things and not been perfect. Rosa Parks didn't want to give up her seat, that was an imperfect decision that led to her arrest, but also the boycott and the desegregation of buses, which eventually led to desegregation everywhere (Sorry if you don't know who that is). We will make mistakes, but for fuck's sake! We can! Life isn't some game that you have definite, black or white choices. We live to learn, and learn to live. Society, FUCK YOU FOR MAKING PEOPLE DIE BECAUSE THEY'RE TRYING TO LIVE UP TO IMPOSSIBLE EXPECTATIONS!!! WE...We...we....we're only human, we can't always be strong, and we can't always do the things you want us to. We have our limits, and that's completely fine. Strength come over time. But for girls, like myself, who are lost, confused, and scared, it's okay. We can make our own path showing strength and weakness at the same time. We....no wait....YOU can do this. Honestly, you can. Its a difficult, long, and painful road we walk called life, but it's our road and ours alone. You've got one and you decide where it goes, what happens from point 'A' to point 'B', if there is a point 'C', and most importantly, where and how it ends. Live your life the way you want to. Not how society wants you to, or that one popular girls/guy in class wants you to, or how that magazine wants you to. It's your life, do what you want and don't give a flying fuck. Anyone questions you? Tell them to do the same and tell them something similar to this. "Your life is yours, live it the way you want to because my life is mine, and right now, I'm doing what I want to with it, and not giving a flying fuck!" I wish you all the best of luck and start this goddamn year off right! 2015!!!
Thank you for reading and I hope you take my advice.
