When I
hit the age 13, I
didn't think change would come.
In fact, I had never experienced "change".
Only when I would "change" my clothes or "change" my hairstyle.
That's what I thought change meant. It does mean that, don't get me wrong,
but that's what I thought it only meant.
I didn't think life in general would change.
I loved my life back then. I had never taken anything seriously and I joked around a lot,
made people laugh. I had never noticed the small things.
I had never looked in the mirror and thought, "wow, my nose is getting big"
or, "wow, my thighs look huggge!". I just thought... well, I didn't really think anything.
Just put some lip-gloss on and went, "yep! Ready for school!". I didn't care how I looked
because there was nothing to care about.
If you get called "fat" or "ugly",
fat and ugly is what you see in the mirror.
If you get called "fat" and have somebody say to you that "you should stop eating"
(and what they mean is stop eating the bad things),
you'd actually stop eating.

You're beautiful.
Inside and out.
Today I was looking at a banana that looked sort of rotted from the outside.
I didn't want to open it and eat it,
because I didn't like the look of the outside of it.
But I did.
And guess what?
The inside was PERFECT.
This relates to everything in life.
People won't always look their best from the outside.
But on the INSIDE, they'll BE their best.

You're all
beautiful. GOD knows that.
GOD LOVES UGLY. He DOESN'T see the way you see.
And that's what matters. Ugly isn't about the bad side.
Ugly can mean beautiful.
In fact, if somebody calls you "beautifully ugly", would you be as cut as you would be if
somebody just called you "ugly"? No.
Because beautiful is a strong word.
It represents EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU.

Have you ever been in
a situation where you just want
to crawl under a box and get away from everything?
Have you ever been in a situation where
the person you love, brings you fear?
Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and could
pick out at least 10 different things you weren't happy about?
I think 1 out of 2 teenage girls have. It's normal.
It's normal to think you're ugly when you're not.
I didn't, to be really honest, think that anything would change
except for what grade I'm in and how old I am. And probably my height.
But I still thought I'd be able to still
fit into those jeans.
Or that shirt.
Or that dress.
I didn't think I'd grow out of them because I was so attached to being a kid
and not taking responsibility for anything.
Always relying on my parents.
I miss the innocence of childhood.
Where we took things for granted
Not even thinking they'd be gone in a few years.

Sometimes when you're
brought down,
somebody complimenting you on anything basically,
is powerful enough to make you feel at least a bit better.
Which reminds me of a time a while back.
I met this guy once. He was cute... really cute, actually.
I was just standing there and thinking and then he interrupts my thoughts
and says this exact line,
"I don't mean to like, harass you or anything but you've got really good looking lips."
Not kidding! Now, that time I was feeling really insecure about my looks
so I didn't even look him in the eye before that.
But honestly, he complimented my LIPS.
I immediately felt... important. Special. I was with another girl. She didn't get
complimented. I did. It was like he knew I felt bad about myself.
I felt more secure about my looks after he compliments my LIPS.
That proves how much words can heal as much as they can hurt.

what am i supposed to do with all these saved conversations ?
our old pictures, the things you left at my house
the things w e m a d e e a c h o t h e r and all
this
stuff
that
now means
absolutely
nothing to
me
when you hate
people,
you're only hurting yourself
because the the people you hate either
dont know you hate them,
or they just dont care.

but you couldn't see that
just stay away
from me.
cause whenever I'm around you, i just get hurt even worse,
when i look in those innocent eyes, i remember everything.
Hearing your voice makes me want to break,
and your musical laugh reminds me of our great times;
seeing your hand in hers makes me remember when that
was my hand . oh and it looks like you got your smile back.
cause it l i g h t s up whenever you're around her.
you're still the reason for the tears stained on my cheeks,
so boy i ask you one more thing. save me some tears and
just stay away from me.
