ME-

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was.  I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory.  I was naive.  I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer.  It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with:  that I am nobody but myself. I'm not perfect and nor are you. I am I, and you are you. Be okay with that. All my life I have been trying to find that solitude where I am happy.... But I have finally come to understand and realize that happiness is a mood, not a destination. I  think that if people thought of it that way, we would find happiness in ourselves a lot more often. The most beautiful people I think in this world are the one’s that have that unique courage to be themselves. No matter what anyone says, no matter how many laugh or mock them, they continue to be themselves even if they are alone. They don’t change to get anyone to like them. They smile because they’re happy and content with themselves.
This link below is to a song called 'Perfect" by Hedley. It is an amazing song and has an amazing message to it. Listen to it. Listen to the melody. And of course listen to the words. Let them speak to your heart just as they have spoken to mine. <3
