Word of advice to everyone:
Know who you are, NOT what you think you are. There's a big difference!
Don't bow to the popular or what's accepted. Be you regardless of outside pressure.
You'll thank yourself later for saving yourself the trouble of being someone you're not.
It's stressful being someone you're not! The sooner you realize this the better.
Figure out the characteristics that rule you. If they're good, keep the course. If they're bad, re-evaluate what's actually important to you. Put away your petty opinions and attitudes and move forward.
Far too much energy is put toward differences and dislikes that don't matter!
Stop defending who you are, and just BE who you are!
