1. day 5- a stranger

    Now I don’t know who you are, and I suppose that’s for the best. I want to become a better person. No, no, I need to be. I need to be more self-aware and mature and lately, I’ve been acting the complete opposite. I was convinced that everyone needs an opinion, and if you just go with the flow, well, you’re never going to get what you want and you’re never going to matter. You need to “stick up for yourself”. And yeah, I still believe that…to an extent. But I guess I am growing from this and realizing that you don’t have to crush everyone around you to get on top and you most certainly do not have to argue and ridicule others just to get your way. You don’t have to talk so loud, just to be heard. And just because you ignore people you dub as “less than you” does not make you any fucking cooler. It makes you rude, and being on the other side, it just makes everything a lot more disheartening. I hate that. So stranger, I’d just like to give you a warm hello and welcome and while maybe I’m not the prettiest, funniest or smartest girl in the world, I’ll definitely be your friend.
