Hello, lovelies! I just want to send a semi-positive message and something I've noticed.
For years, I was known to be stupid, but now I am known to be smart, but guess what? I am sometimes treated way worse than years prior. Now that I am doing better and I am doing hobbies I enjoy (and being good at it), I can never avoid people constantly trying to one up me in some way. If I say I get all A's or only get one B+ in a difficult subject, I hear "well I'm the top of my class." When I became top 10 in my class, I got laughed at for not being #1. When I got third chair in my Band I was excluded from my yearbook and cut me out of photos that I was in. There are many other things I can talk about, but those are the few examples.
So now I am here, and I am starting to feel a little better about how I look, yet people make it clear to ignore me more now that they see my face (on other forms of media) and someone reported me on Facebook and disabled my account.
What I'm trying to say is that there is no better side to be on, and sometimes I wish/wished that I didn't judge myself so harshly or kept all of my talents to myself because now I have to pay for just feeling better. So, for anyone out there that is struggling, please don't let your perspective blind you. Don't let other people make you feel like crap because you don't feel good enough. If that special person you love can't love you for you, then they don't deserve you. When the time comes to be in the spotlight, don't share it with someone or else you may find yourself being casted in the shadows. See the good in you and don't let someone take that light! It's not theirs to take, it is yours... and you deserve to be in that spotlight and show the world who you are.
Thank you for reading, and I love y'all <3
