"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing it's best, night and day, to make you everybody else, means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting."
This quote is perfect, because it says so much. It's how I feel. I feel like I'm fighting for the right to be who I am. I'm fighing against everything I've ever been taught. Against everything I've ever known to be right. And for everything I've always been taught was wrong.
It turns out that I've become that person; the one that my parents and the rest of the world have tried to keep me from becoming. I'm still fighting for the right to be who I am though... and it's so hard. It's the absolute hardest thing I've ever had to do. But I'm doing it. Not because I have to, but because I want to. I want to be okay with who I am, and I want it to be okay with everyone else.
I feel like I'm having to fight for absolutely everything in my life right now, and I hate it. I need to feel okay again. I need something, or someone to make me feel okay again.
it's andrea
