It's my birthday today, i won't say i'm feeling the best there ever is, it's a brand new year though... In the past years, all i've seen are people, people complaining about who they are not and who they can't be; only complimenting the wonderful side of others and not seeing the beauty within themselves, i wonder why. I, for once, have the same feeling too. Over the years, i've heard people often say that i have such a wonder date as a birthday but, somehow, i've never seem to see the "special" in it. I always envy those people with birth dates on a normal day, a birth date on a schooling week. They get to be able to share it well with the friends around them as everyone will be free, everyone will be there. I've often wonder, why do i have the feeling like i'm being left out, like i'm not part of them; i want to be part of them. As time past, i start to wonder, why put in so much to be something you're not? We often place our self-esteem so lowly compared to others, why so? are we not good enough? We are who we are, and we are all special in our own way. We don't have what others do because that is what makes us an individual, different from others, special. If everyone were to be the same, what good will that do? what beauty will life have for us? For all i know, we are different and that's what makes us connect to one another, to understand each other, to know what is it like to have another here. It's true some of us won't be as great nor as wanted as the others, but you're always needed, this might not be your place but the world is filled with empty spaces just waiting for you to fill it. You are who you are and that's what makes us special. Different isn't bad, indifferent is. |
