Are You Happy Now?

Their is nothing wrong with standing out and being different from others. Remember, though it may not seem like it their is someone that loves you, someone that cares. Don't let the bullies tear you down, don't let them break you and make you think your something that your not. If you are a bully I hope your happy that you made that person feel insecure, or you made that person cry I hope your happy that you made them hide behind a personality that doesn't represent them. If you are getting bullied remember that you don't know the story behind the bullies, though it doesn't make it right, you don't know what they are going through. The best revenge you can do to the bullies is proving them wrong and showing them the real you, and being okay with it.

Take That Brave Step

"Do one thing everyday that scares you."- Eleanor Roosevelt

The quote above is a quote that we should live by daily. When we get bullied were afraid to do stuff we love because we're afraid of getting judged by other people. We don't want them to see it as a flaw if we fail. But we shouldn't worry about what they think! Don't be someone that looks back on their life and say well I should've done this or I wish I would've done this. If you do something that you dream of and at first you fail just remember you had te courage to actually try. You took that brave step into trying while the others just sat there and watched. If we do something that we fear we are becoming braver and its building us into the unique person that we are.

The Power Of Walking Away

We've all heard the saying "Just Turn The Other Cheek" but how many times do we have to get slapped before it actually starts to pay off? Is it when we get verbally slapped it's building us up to be stronger even though it feels like it's tearing us down. When I got bullied my first instinct was to fight back, an later run to the girls bathroom and pray nobody followed me and saw my tears. But looking back I don't understand why I actually wasted my tears on them, their opinions didn't define who I was, yes they hurt, but I know who I'am and just because somebody doesn't like it shouldn't matter. The ability of walking away is knowing that you are who you because that's who we were made to be and that's what makes us happy. The only time we should change ourself is when we want to change for the better not to change because someone didn't like us being different. Even if you think what the bullies are saying is true having the ability to walk away gives you more power. It proves to them that you are stronger than what they think, and what you have to remember is just because they don't like you doesn't mean you should change to please them. Though it may be hard to walk away remember that being yourself is fine! Nobody is made to be the same because even if we were people would still find ways to bring you down. You are never going to be able to please everybody, but if you please yourself that's all that should matter.

You Shouldn't Wanna Be Anybody Else

What is the goals that you want to accomplish before you graduate high school? Could it be to become prom queen or maybe to be the most popular student or maybe to be captain of the football team (being relatable to guys). Its like a dream trying to become one of those things, we would do anything to get that crown and to have that spot light dance with the hottie you had an eyes on all year. But why do we do this? My aunt and I were going through her yearbook and we got to the page were all the prom court was, I asked if she knew what happened to everybody on the prom court and she went on saying that most of them didn't become very successful. They either worked in a store as a cashier or became a waitress, I'm not saying anything is wrong with that but girls work hard their whole school year, being fake, tearing people, just trying to prove how much cooler they are and look were they end up. Their is so much more than wearing the pound of makeup, and wearing the name brand clothing. When I look back at my life in years to come, I'd rather look back knowing I always tried to give a positive outlook to people and studied hard and actually be successful than being someone who tears others down to get that plastic crown for that one night. I know during your time in school you can't see it but their really is so much more to life than just school. It does end at some point than you get to start a new life, and being yourself will get you so much farther than being like someone else. All those popular girls at school will be totally lost when they become apart of the real because they grew up being fake and not knowing who they were, so they end up not knowing what to like or what to do because they pretended to like everything their friends liked. Being different is a good thing, you make your own rules, and you know who you want to be and how you want to make a difference in the world. If your having a bad time at school remember that it will end, and know that you will go big as long as you put your mind to it and stay true to yourself.

Labels

    Why do you let people label you? Why do you let people define who you are? Why do you let them label you and then you run your life by it? Since when did being unique be a bad thing, I don't want to be just like that blonde girl who picks on everyone because she's afraid of people seeing her insecurities . Beauty isn't everything, their is way more to life then being the prom queen or looking like some Victoria Secrets model. Now I'm not saying their is anything wrong with that but why let it define who you are? To me personality is way more interesting than beauty, everybody keeps trying to be the same skinny, barbie doll and they start to all look the same. Be the different one, be the one that stands out from the rest, because that is way more cool than trying to be someone your not. Lets say you like to wear blue wigs to school, I'm not going to lie to you and say people wont pick on you because they will, but if thats what makes you happy it shouldn't matter what others think. Your living life for you not anybody else, and at the end of the day if your happy thats all that should matter. So what if people pick on you, and call you names, you know who you are. Surround yourself with people that support you individualism instead of trying to make you into everybody else. Their is nothing cool with being just like everyone else, everybody tries to fit in because they want to play it safe in life and try to be like everyone else. But being unique is being you and if your unique their is nobody like you, you play by your own rules because you don't care what people have to say. So stay unique because the world could use a little different.

Take A Stand

    I just found this video about bullying. It gives a different aspect of bullying, thankfully I didn't have to go through this kind of bullying. But it made me realize that I might not have gone through it but many of you might have, so I decided I'm going to do more research and post more about verbal and physical bullying because it all hurts and it needs to be talked about! Also go on the website (The Website Page!) and go take the pledge to end bullying. And if you have never been bullied you can still take a stand, every pledge counts and it will make a difference, please continue sharing this blog as well, lets take a stand against bullying.

The Bullied Turning Into The Bully

  Do you get bullied and then start comparing yourself to other people? Saying, well at least I'm not as bad as her or at least I don't look like her. Aren't we just doing what the bullies did to us? Remember this when you see a person sitting alone at lunch or getting picked, on go stand up for them or go sit by them because you were once in that position, and you know exactly how it felt. That person sitting alone feeling like they don't belong and they have so many insecurities that they think they are the weird one, go be a friend to them show them that their are better people out there than "The Popular Girls".  Think twice next time before you start to call somebody fat, or ugly or just simply making fun of one of their insecurities, though you might not of known be careful what you say because you don't know if you pushed them farther to the edge, be kind and remember that you were in there shoes once, be a friend because you were once wondering why all your friends left you. Stay Strong Lovely.
