Here we go.
A rant shall we call it?

I'm tired of people being so worried about the people around them and who sees them do what.

You know the people I'm talking about.
The ones who complain when someone doesn't follow them on Twitter or Facebook.
The person who is constantly trying to one up, and or be better than the next person.
The person who spends way too much money on a t-shirt just because they want to, "look cool".

I don't understand why anyone would live like this- and I also don't understand why anyone would live like this and be in denial that they do. It's disgusting to me.


We all have a voice, we all were created UNIQUELY for a REASON.
Stop trying to be like Joe-Blow next to you. You may think that person is awesome and amazing and someone else may think they are a total and complete douche-bag-ass-wipe.

Stop trying to be someone you're not. And just be you. Be who you want to be. Be happy, be creative, be nerdy, be dumb, be athletic, be whatever. As long as you're happy. Don't try to be like someone else.

I've heard it said that what we see in people and from people is their highlight reels. We don't see the behind the scene footage of their struggles, heartaches, problems, addictions... what have you.

So stop comparing yourself.
Stop wanting the best things.
Stop trying to be better than everyone and or compare yourself to everyone.

You are created uniquely.
Your words matter and you should use them.
Let your voice rise.
Don't sell yourself out for something ridiculous like friends on a social networking site.
And don't sweat that you have 50 followers or 50,000. It doesn't matter.

No one is better than anyone else.
Because in the end...

The ground is leveled at the foot of the Cross.
