Who are you on the inside? Are you different from the "You" that is shown? We all have an inner someone, someone that is dying to get out and show their true colors. Someone that is a surprising part of ourselves, maybe we are more open, full of pride, brave. Why do we have these alter egos? Why not have the ability to express ourselves fully. One answer "Society" societal standards have led us to conform and fit into the majority, leaving our individuality at the corner of "Nowhere" and "Never To Be Seen" We practically leave ourselves in the dust. Even those that say " I'm not like the rest" You are without knowing it, you've tried to fit into the mold. Trust me I'm guilty of it. My inner self, I call her my inner goddess, yells constantly because the mold is becoming just that Black Mold. It's toxic and now more than ever we need to embrace our uniqueness and become individuals in all aspects. I personally would rather know the inner you, then the self that is portrayed. I'm going to make this clear though because it's not my job to offend people. There is nothing wrong with trying to fit in with society, if you feel you need to, do it. I'm not a hateful person that's going to hate on someone for fitting in. There is too much negativity if you don't. Yeah, I'm sure we all have had a run in with our fair share of bullying. I want to express that the inner you should be loved as much as your projection if society would change the standards that it has adopted, we could run, wild and crazy. If labels were thrown in the trash, self-expression would not be limited to a genre. I myself am, not defined by what I wear, If I want to wear all black one day and the next have bright red roses printed on my pants the next I will. It should not be about what everyone else is doing but by what you want to do. It's simple and the more I sat and think about it, wouldn't the world be a happier place, if self-expression was embraced? I can imagine that, Yes, we might still have the political issues we have but a lot of our problems from a sociable point of view would end. A lot of the violence and deaths would stop, the rate of being bullied would decrease and communities would essentially be safer. If only we could rewind time with the knowledge that we have now, We take so much for granted and often resent the people we turn out to be, we forget the discipline of our past for the spoiled luxuries of the future. Our inner selves are suppressed, forever stuck at the corner street waiting on the bus to bring them to the surface. What do you think?
