It’s okay to be different.
Diversity is what makes the world go around.
We come in a variety of colors, shapes & sizes.
I don’t look like everyone, nor do I sound and or think like everyone else.
It took a while for me to be comfortable enough to be who I am.
I tried to dress, talk & act like my friends when I was younger.
I was very unhappy. I’d be out at the Mall, reading a book.
Life became much simpler when I realized that no matter how hard I tried, I would always stand out.
Once I became comfortable in my own skin, I realized that others were trying to be like me!
I like reading books, painting, writing & photography.
None of my friends were into that at the time, I was able to introduce them to something new.
We began embracing each other’s differences & the exposure to new and exciting hobbies and ideas.
Most of my friends are loud & boisterous, believe it or not I was the reserved one!
Now I go with the flow though for the most part I’m very reserved.
I’m silly & love to laugh, I’m at times very sensitive but also tougher than you could ever fathom.
But the biggest difference between my friends and I is that I’m bipolar.
I’m often withdrawn and in my own little world.
But that’s okay. I’m a celeb here lol.
The bottom line is don’t take yourself too seriously.
Learn to life, laugh & love…..
