In today's blog topic, i choose to discuss how people live their lives. Do you do as you feel and what you enjoy, or do you think twice in fear of what someone or a group of people may think about what you choose to do.
In the earlier years of my life i was totally guilty of living or other people around me. I was so self conscious, I became afraid. What would they think if I did this, what would they think if I did that? Eventually, i sat down and thought to my self, "what the fuck am i doing?" I came to the realization that i was living for those people, trying to please them and portray and image they would prefer. I realized that was not the way i wanted to live.
Recently on of my friends, who happen to always want to be part of the "cool crowd" came to me and said, "I really like this jacket, but i don't want to wear it because i think people will look at me funny and they wont like it." I shook my head and simply asked, "who are you living for boo boo?" She replied, "me of course!" So i responded, "then why should what they think matter, wear you dam jacket and rock that shit too!" My friend did just that.
My point of the matter is, its your life, if your not living it, then you better start living it. Stop worrying about what others around you think. Others are living their lives, so why in God's name would you be concerned with their opinion on how you should do what you do or live how you live. Be the you, you want to be not the you they want you to be.
In conclusion, its your life and no one else. If you don't live it who will. You only live once, so why not make the best of it and enjoy it and live it to the fullest. In the words of the infamous Rihanna, "Just live ya life!"
