The First Thing You Should Know

Integrity - an undivided or unbroken completeness or totality with nothing wanting
- moral soundness
- consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, expectations and outcome

I'm gonna take this space and be bold and honest, more than before, to the point where I might regret it later.

From my point of view, life wouldn't be as lonely if everyone was like me. But then, what makes me unique is no longer unique.

I've struggled to make friends all my life, it's not a complaint, it's just reality. I am one of a kind, and I know it. It's not a pride thing, but more of a content acceptance. Being so different, in primary school I was cast out, pushed out and ignored. In High school, I segregated myself cause I feared more rejection, which I got anyway, cause I was different. But as I got older, I began to discover who I was, deep down, inside and out. I found that I was made this way for reason and all that happened, all that had crushed me, numbed me and pierced me were all for a reason. I am who I am because of what I've been through.

If I could take anything away from what I've experienced over these years it's that you shouldn't compromise on who you are. Not for the sake of the opposite sex, not for your peers and certainly not for popularity. If people hate you, that's their problem not yours. You know what's you, and what's not you, cause what IS you is incorruptible.
