i just turned 18 which for some people means freedom but then how many people actually free even after 18. Many still think their life is influenced by other or even dictated by others. Some even change for others after nasty remarks that undermines their basic principles or the foundation of a persons character. Never let others dictate YOu. You are what you are if you change your believes and likings for other then you end up like all the lost souls who walk this earth. If you cant even defend your basic/fundamental principle at this young tender age your in for big touble, lost and emotional breakdown, hard to grasp but that is the truth. I've got a classmate who has been my fierces and best of competitors thought me this by his nature ar his weakness i do not know but that person made me figure out that you can only hellp others after you help yourself in this context not changing who YOU are come hell or high water. Well since this blogs mine i rather talk on me. I've been redicule in many ways on many things but im still who i am, never changed one moment. And guess what its those who close to you who do this! Sometime you cant actually blame them because in the end who are we to judge who is right and who is wrong??! In the end its you or rather ourselves who is the master of ourself. Our conscience is our supreme master. And i for one not going to yield to anyone. haha(sounds to rhetoric eh)but thats the whole truth... u r what u r and u r unique who the hell is going to care for u of not yourself? its your life.. decide and life this life as u want it but not of what others force u to do?this is exceptional in the case of parents advice but not necessarily so all the time.
