If I was to tell you one thing in my bio- it wouldn't be my favorite writers, or my favorite musicians, or my favorite movies. If I was to tell you one thing I wouldn't even tell you why I love to write. I would tell you to be yourself.
I know everywhere you'll see signs saying be yourself, or ads with models on them saying, be beautiful- be you, but those ads always have a limit on how much of you, you're allowed to be. You're restricted by society to keep yourself from doing things that aren't common, or that aren't what some people want to see or hear.
I will tell you to screw every person that says you shouldn't be who you are because they don't like it. Be whoever you want. Be whatever you want. Be indecision, make up your mind, or change over and over.
It takes a while to find who you really are, but once you do- you know. Never be afraid of change. I have had a lot of change, and I learn to embrace it. Once you do find yourself, or at least the you, you want to be at that time- express yourself. Express yourself to whatever extent you want.
Don't bother with what everyone else thinks because it's your body, it's your mind, it's your personality, and it's your home. So go where others won't dare. If you break the circle everyone else is walking in (whether that's clothes, music, interests, etc.) you'll be free.
You'll be free to do anything you wish, without having the mindset that you must behave and act as others want you to. Be brave and leave the standers of society, because bravery like that is uncommonly beautiful. Remember, no female or male who stays in line with everything society wants can make a difference.
