Posted By: Terrance Powell on August 07, 2008 If there's anything that people should be tired of, its being fake. Be you, not who others expect you to be. I'm preparing to go off to college in three days, and since I have graduated high school, I've had to mature a lot more than I did in high school. This is an adult world, and I'm just a teen. But I'm growing up. I've had a lot of things come at me in the past four years. Everything from pain, stress, depression, heartbreak, lies, deceit, and a whole lot more. But I'm not letting this stop me. I gotta keep moving on, ya feel me? This can't stop my progression. I have to be me, I have to be true to myself and the world that sees me as who I am. I can't become a puppet to the world and answer to their every whim. I can't conform the world as they want me to be. I have to be me. My individuality, my personality, its who I am, its all I know and Its all I can be. Whether its your style, your swagger, your personality, your demeanor, whatever it is that makes you who you are, you can't change that for anyone or anything. God has blessed you with whatever it is that makes you who you are. His divine plan is for you to be you, so why change? Be blessed by these words of encouragement. ~1 Love...~ If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
