You're different and that's what makes you special.


My teacher keeps on saying that my generation isn't as good as the one before us. He says that we're lazier, we're inconsiderate, we're forgetful, we don't have much manners, etc. etc. Of course he doesn't say this exactly but you can understand what he means. And he made me feel kind of guilty until I read this article where there was a piece of a letter that an old man wrote to his friend. It was about the younger generation and how young people aren't what they used to be. So basically he wrote about the same things as my teacher always talks about. Guess what century the letter's from? The 18th. What I'm trying to say here is that you may hear something like I just described, if you do, don't take it personally. Each and every generation is different and that doesn't mean that one generation is better than the other.

In a way it's the same with people. Each and every one of us is different in our own special way. That doesn't mean we're weird, it means we're unique. Do you think it would be fun if every single person was exactly like everyone else? No way. It would be boring, life would never change and there wouldn't be any surprises. So if someone tells you you're weird, ignore them. You're different and that's what makes you special. :)

Hope I gave good advice :)

Love chocolate4ever.
