I Want to Be Perfect

Every single day, I tried my best to be the “happy” friend; in reality, I hated my life. I hated everything about me. But, the only person I could really trust and share everything with was myself. I would always and will forever keep everything to myself because I feel like people would judge me and say that I’m annoying.

I would always say, “Why do you always overthink everything? Everything’s going to be okay, don’t worry. I got your back; you can always tell me anything, I’ll support you no matter what. You’re very beautiful too; don’t let other people you see on social media ruin your confidence.

Also, just because you hate the way you are doesn’t mean that can ruin you completely. You’re beautiful, gorgeous, unique, and you’re worth more than anything. Don’t let hater’s/people’s words destroy you on the inside; you’re perfect just the way you are.”

YOU’RE WORTH MORE THAN ANYTHING \\ 2
