When i was in school,i used to write into a diary- all that i found beautiful and motivating. While skimming through it today, i thought of sharing the following excerpt,which i think i wrote from the book- 'chicken soup for the teenage soul'.Here it goes:-
Life isn't about keeping score.It's not about how many people like you and it's not about what sport you play.It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school.It's not about your grades,money,clothes or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone,and its not about how accepted or unaccepted you are.Life just isn't about that.
But,Life is about who you love and who you hurt.It's about how you feel about yourself.It's about trust,happiness and compassion.It's about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love.Life is about overcoming ignorance and building confidence.It's about what you say and what you mean.
It's about seeing people for what they are and not what they have.Most of all,it's about choosing to live in someone else's way that could have never been achieved otherwise.
Keep Shining!
