The Most Important Thing In Life Is To Be Yourself

This world is full of different people with different lives, cultures and personalities. This world is full of wonders and there is a lot of unique people in this world. There also can be a lot of darkness. The society we live in is focused on perfection. Perfection with looks, personality and success. We live in a society that focuses on money and popularity. It is easy to lose yourself in the society we live in today. So, here are some important things to keep in mind.

There is no such thing as perfection...

We get so much stress put on us to look perfect and to act perfect. We get a lot of stress on us to be successful and to make a lot of money. The likes and followers we get mean something even when we don't want it to mean so much to us. Popularity and the need to be liked takes a toll on a lot of people. To get these things sometimes we start to lose who we are because we are trying so hard to be somebody we are not.

Being different is a beautiful thing...

There is a beauty in uniqueness and everyone has it. Everyone is unique because no one is the same. People can be similar to each other but they will never be exactly the same. We all have interesting minds that work in mysterious ways.

Everyone has their problems...

Each of us have problems we need to face and demons we need to conquer. Everyone has been through something because no one's life is perfect. Someone's life may seem perfect on the outside but you will never truly know what goes on in the inside. You are never alone when it comes to facing troubles.

Beauty comes in many variations...

Everyone finds different things beautiful. Everyone finds someone beautiful and everyone thinks something is the most beautiful thing they have ever seen. Beauty doesn't have one meaning like society says it does. Beauty is in everything which means everyone is beautiful.

You have lost enough, don't lose yourself too...

You are the person who can get yourself through a lot which means you must remain true to yourself. You can lose a lot in life. You lose loved ones, opportunities and friendships, but you shouldn't let yourself lose you.

There are many important things in this world. Family, friends and love is very important. Everyone has something that is the most important thing to them. Your happiness and staying true to yourself should always be a top priority. You matter and it is important to always be yourself because it is a waste of a life to be someone else.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
