My poor neighbor has to move
because her ex-boyfriend has been trying to kill her.
People are so awful I just can't even comprehend.

I still have no idea what I'm getting my boyfriend for Christmas...
I want to make a difference…
  I am just one person, but I don’t think people understand that all it takes is one person to make a change, to improve. All it takes is one moment of pure bravery to be that change. I think most people wish for change to come, yet they sit back and wait for someone else to make that change for them; I would know, that was me about five minutes before writing this. But something came upon me and I realized that no change will come if I do that. I have to be my own hero. After coming to this realization, a billion different words, and phrases raced through my mind all stringed together by the topic of body image.
What exactly is body image? By definition, body image is “a subjective picture of one's own physical appearance established both by self-observation and by noting the reactions of others.” To break that down, body image is how you see yourself physically, based off of comparisons and the opinions of others. Our entire lives are impacted by this tiny thing, but it’s up to you how much it affects you. We are surrounded by media. We have television, magazines, and the internet as ways to access it. Everywhere we look we see images of girls who are skinny and tall. These pictures are plastered everywhere we look. For some, this is no big deal, it means nothing, but for others their mind has been set to believe that this is how they are supposed to look.
 Throughout the years we’ve been in school we have constantly been told not to bully. Although bullying is a huge and important topic, sometimes it seems as if people think that is the only struggle we face. The purpose of this is not to denounce bullying, and to make it seem as if the struggle with body image is more important than bullying. Bullying can be the root to struggling with body image. I think that this topic needs to be touched upon; it is affecting and has affected more people than we’ll ever know.
Everyone cares what people think of them. There are different degrees, but everyone cares to a certain extent. You have no control over it. There are times when we get caught up in this. There are times when we do things to please others, but no matter what we do, no matter who you are, not everyone is going to understand you and like you. It’s up to you how much you let this control you and I think way too many people have let this control who they are. We’ve all heard things such as “it’s about what’s on the inside that counts,” and this is one hundred percent true. If you go around looking for beauty in the world with your only judgment being the appearance, you’re going to miss out on some wonderful things. The same thing applies to people. How someone looks, does not define who they are.
This is coming from a fourteen year-old girl. Many people will think “why should I listen to her? She hasn’t experienced the real world yet, she’s younger than me.” Also, some of you might know that I have a knack for filming myself doing my makeup and posting it on YouTube. I do this, which makes me a beauty vlogger. This kind of contradicts all that I have stated so far because makeup is something that changes the way you look. But to me, the purpose of makeup is not to change for others, but to give you self-confidence. To me my makeup is for me. I wear makeup because it makes me happy. It makes me feel beautiful.

I feel as if I'm meant to make an impact on the world. I'm tired of just sitting back and letting my life go by. Today, I will start to make a difference. You'll see.

I'm not as innocent as everyone makes me out to be

Theres nothing I can do or say that will make this better and I just can't do this.

 

 

 

I am not my GPA. I am not my mistakes.

I am not my failures.

You are not "depressed"
You are a person struggling with depression
don't let your disorder define who you are
nights like these make it so hard not go back to who I used to be
