There are estimated over six billion people in this world.
THAT'S A LOT!!!
None of them, not ONE looks exactly alike (even identical twins have small differences--NO ONE looks exactly alike!)
That's amazing.
Each and every one of them has thoughts and hopes and dreams.
That are THEIR OWN.
Each and every one of them has relationships, good or bad.
And those relationships BELONG TO THAT PERSON! They are the, for lack of a better word, property, of that individual! UNIQUE!
Each and every one of them can think, and can think (if they so choose) individually.

I watch tv (occasionally). I frequently read books that could be written by people--realistic fiction. Most of them are the "girls in high school" books. You know, with the bitching about how fat they are, how their eyes are too far apart, their nose is too big, their teeth aren't straight enough or white enough, they need a bigger chest, and oh this girl has long straight thick blonde hair and mine is short curly poopy brown hair and blah, blah, blah...
If there are any people who are seriously like that, I feel so sorry for you.
It's about time that we as a race started embracing our individuality. I mean REALLY embracing it, and letting others do the same. No, we are not doing that now. We aren't anywhere close to shedding lables and brand names and plastic surgery. I can't imagine us ever GETTING that far. I mean, honestly. I look in the mirror and see about ten things wrong with myself, in the time span of maybe a minute, at the most. That's sad. It really is. I WANT everyone to be an individual, I myself want to be just me, and I find myself subconsciencely conforming to today's standard of beauty.
I am NOT a skinny little twig.
And that does NOT make me ugly.
SCREW SOCIETY'S RULES!!!
We're the ones who enforce them, you know.

So next time you look in the mirror and notice all the things wrong with you, remember, there is no one in this world who is exactly like you. NO one. You are completely unique. And no matter what society says, there is no real definition of beauty, except what our pitiful human selves enforce.
