"It's okay to be different and not be like everyone eles. If someone doesn't like the way you are don't change yourself just be you."

-Amari Barnes

It's okay to be differnt and if someone doesn't acept that you are who you are don't change for anyone. Many people are all about fitting in and they think that appearence, taste in clothes, or music define who you are. In reality, you are just being you and that's okay. Everyone isn't the same and everyone doesn't look the same. For example, Sam isn't going to look like Cat and Cat isn't going to be like Nat. That's okay sometimes it isn't all about fitting in and being the same. Ever heard of the quote "An origianl is worth way more than a copy." It's okay to be yourself you will soon be worth gold. If one person dosen't like you for who you are don't change someday someone will and you will feel apart. Society today is all about being apart of something such as a gang, crew, or squad. Eithier of thoes will help you define who yoiu are. You have to figure out who you are within yourself first. Change will come naturally and you just have to wait until that day comes.
