It all starts with YOU

 You know what is so funny to me about people in general? We all crave to be accepted by society and yet that is something that will never happen. Which is why I ask this question: Why try to alter yourself to be accepted by people who don't have any input in your life?

Do they pay your bills? No

Do they choose your future? No

And let me be blunt and honest with this last one...

Do they actually care about you?  HELL NO

So why do what others want you to do just to be in the "crowd"?

 If you like listening to heavy metal do it. If you like wearing clothes that aren't the fad at the moment do it. If you like partying all the time then do it. We were all created different for a reason. Happiness starts with self acceptance and once you love you for who you really are no one can bring you down.
