Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.
Dr. Seuss
Stop shaming people for doing what makes them happy if it doesn’t cause you any harm.
Fall in love with the moon every night, listen to an overrated song on repeat, watch that one average movie with your favourite actor in it and then watch everything else that involves that actor, be obsessed with shitty art, take photos of the sky until your gallery is full, follow the trend everyone else is following, it will be different for you because you are a different person with different experiences and tastes and secrets and pains, follow that famous youtuber, love that stupid new tiktok trend, read cliché fanfictions and love those “for children” movies, play foreign music, get that hairstyle, start a meme page, put an overly used quote as your status, believe in magic, celebrate little victories that only you know about, don’t let them shame you into not living your life. Fuck them.
“I like people who have a sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that’s natural and that’s real.”— Marc Jacobs

If you find my main blog, then you probably already saw it, but I want to share it all over the place.
I just got an email from my math teacher, because standardized testing is upon us. I know this doesn’t go to my theme, but I just wanted to share it.
- They don’t know if you can speak multiple languages or if you can play a musical instrument.
- They don’t know if you are a dancer or can produce beautiful works of art.
- They don’t know that your friends can count on you when they need you and that your smile can make a bad day disappear.
- They don’t know that you recite poetry or write music or participate in sports.
- They don’t know that sometimes you wonder what the future will bring or that your take care of your siblings after school.
- They don’t know that you have traveled to some beautiful places, that you are good at telling a story or that you enjoy spending time with family and friends.
- They don’t know that you are trustworthy, caring, friendly and attentive and that every day you try to do your very best.
I just thought everyone should read this and know that those stupid test don’t define you. Be you. Not what everyone else wants you to be. Unless you’re an asshole, then stop being a fucking asshole.
