I POSTED THIS A WHILE AGO..........

But I wanted to post it again. I like it. It's still true.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As everyone else wishes, I too want to be "normal". And yet, I am still an outsider; being the quiet one, the small one, the one that blends with the wall. Nobody comes up to me anymore. I guess I don't matter that much.

It makes me not want to be "normal"; because normal means invisible. So I want to paint my hair red. I want to brings hats into style for girls. I want to stand out for my skills; poetry, photography, and love.

Yes. LOVE. It takes some skill to get used to it. To trust and be trust worthy. To figure out the other person. I'm not saying it takes a while to fall in love. I don't really know. But to love, that takes some input of some sort.

As is "normal", I want to proceed. I want to make progress, just as everyone else is. I am being teased that I don't have a job, that I can't drive. That I'm not already done with High school and already at the next step. I feel myself stuck, wanting. Which needs intention. Which needs desire. Which needs love. So what does that mean?





And this also. Edo will get this because we were talking about too much faith.

maybe you should find someone who love the things that you do, because normal people will never appreciate your talents because there not in to it so that means your extraordinary. its just that you havent found someone to share it with, thats why they never realized how good you are. well keep living your lj friends love u :D

I respect the idea of standing out for your skills. Don't concern yourself over things like hair colour. Work hard and bide your time, you'll get your rewards eventually.
