A Perfect World
We live in
a «perfect world». Everyone has to be perfect or else you won’t be accepted. One can’t be yourself and one have to live up to everyone’s expectations.
If you don’t wear expensive clothes, you’re
not perfect.
If you don’t have perfect eyebrows, you’re not
perfect.
If you don’t wear and have expensive make-up,
you’re not perfect.
We live in
a world where we can’t have confidence. If we do, people would think that we are better than them.
In this
world, we can't pick our own friends. You have to be friends with the
"cool ones". The
“perfect ones”. How are we supposed to be happy when
the world turns against us?
But this, this is not me. I wear what I want.
I don't have a lot of make-up. I don't have perfect eyebrows and I choose my
own friends. And I hope there is people that does the same thing, wears
whatever they want, doesn't buy expensive make-up if they don't want to, choose
their own friends and knows that just being themselves is enough.
These
"perfect" images is ruining our world. We can't let that happen.
Being young today isn't only easy, there is obviously a lot of pressure on you. Is this mainly a problem among girls, or do the boys struggle with the same?
SvarSlettThis text is about girls and how we feel it, but of course boys can feel this way too. I just feel like I can't speak for the boys, since I don't know exactly how they feel.
