Are you normal?
No, really, are you normal? If yes, then is it worth it? You, trying to fix into a box that says NORMAL? You, being the person that most person claims to be ,Normal!
Growing up, I have always been the one to be abnormal, well not mentally though, if that's what you are thinking ππππ.
I never really fit along with the other students or even my own cousins. I was always considered different, or at least I thought that people around me considered me to be that. For as long as I can remember, even if I didn't fit in, I always put an effort to fit in, and now that I have grown up a little, I think my behavior was toxic for myself and that I started killing my soul from the moment I tried putting my first step into the BOX!
To those of you, who haven't seen me yet, I have dark skin. Also, yessss I always wanted to have fair skin, and I realize now how everything is wrong with that notion. How from a very young age, I somehow knew that fair skin was more desirable, because my friend who was of the same age, she had fair skin and people kind of loved her more and considered pretty, again that's my brain coming to that conclusion.
People always liked putting in suggestions on how to become a LITTLE MORE FAIR. How I would look breathtakingly adorable if I was a LITTLE MORE FAIR. How I should never drink black tea if I wanted to be a LITTLE MORE FAIR.
I remember always looking at my wrist and thinking life would be so great only is my face was this color.
Yeah I know it's sad!
But let's discuss whose fault it was?
Was it mine? Nope, I was nothing but just a kid.
Was it GOD'S? Nope, I guess he just liked chocolates and vanilla equally, what's wrong in equality?
Well Well the only one left is THE SOCIETY, why put a little girl through that? I realized that I grew up, and now I am a part of THE SOCIETY, all of us are!
So, next time when you see someone different , let them know that DIFFERENT is BEAUTIFUL! Because we have it in our hands to shape today's society, so let's gear up and do that
