I'm the girl who hides her feelings.
I will always have a smile or kind expression on my face when you talk to me. I will always tell you I'm fine, great, or couldn't be better when you ask me how I feel. I hide how I am feeling because I don't want to bother anyone else with my feelings. I don't want someone to feel as if they need to help me or fix me. I have learned over the years to hide how I feel and work it out on my own so I don't inconvenience other people.
I'm the girl who is rather insecure.
People who know me may not know it, but there are many things about myself that aren't how I'd like them to be. I wish I was skinnier sometimes. I wish I could wear what other girls wear and look as good as them. I wish I was brave enough to try bold makeup. I wish I looked a little different sometimes. I stick to looking plain, because it doesn't draw any attention to me. I blend in. I look the part of the girl in the crowd. Do I want to stand out and be something people remember? Yes, but I don't want to have the wrong looks given to me.
I'm the girl who acts too brave.
Nothing can phase me to the outside world. I am strong, I have no fears. On the inside, I can be like chicken little. What I have learned is that people remember the pretty faces, but they admire the brave souls.
I'm the girl who speaks her mind.
I have my opinions and I'm not afraid to share them. Do they differ from many people I know? Yes, but I'm not ashamed of how I feel. I voice my opinions in hopes to show people how I feel and explain my beliefs and why I think the way I do. I don't share how I feel to counter the opinions of my friends and make them mad. We all have our feelings and opinions, and I will voice mine as I please.
I'm the girl who is strong willed.
Some may call me strong headed or rebellious, but that's just me. I don't back down often. I am unapologetically me, and am proud. I say what I think, do what I can, and I am who I am. Nothing can change how I am, and that's how it should be. No one can change me or make me in to something I'm not.
There are many sides to me. No matter how you look at me, I'm the girl who is doing her best to live the best life she can. And that's all we can really do.
