Dear You,
I have quotes and quotes for days...
So I found this one and it brought me so much comfort. As a kid, I was normal enough to survive but not enough to fit in, I was always the odd one out, the last one picked for teams, the one who sat on the edge of the playground making up songs to myself about how hurt I was watching all the other kids play.
I was so odd and different that I didn't know what else to do. I remember that all-consuming pain (as much as an 8 year old can feel) that came from a lack of understanding why no one wanted me to play with them.
But Marc Jacobs puts this beautifully because perfection really is boring. The things that make us unique make us interesting. People get teased for loving something too much but without that passion, that overwhelming drive, what would the world be.
Personally, seeing that fire in another person's eyes when they talk about the things they love the most makes them so beautiful and I can only hope that society and the little kids of the world eventually learn that loving something doesn't make you weird, it makes you exciting.
I've always been an all or nothing type of girl. When I was little I put every ounce of energy into my school work though today that gets channeled into music and writing but either way I hope that little girls learn to love that about themselves rather than feel ashamed. The world would be such a better and more interesting place.
Leave me your thoughts in the comments below!
Have an Amazing Day!
