As I was powdering my face in class my classmate who I became real chill with said, “You’re pretty already.. but you’ll never catch up with your inner beauty.” I froze. How do you respond to that? Sometimes I think “thanks” doesn’t suffice to what the most endearing things people will say. I’ve been feeling a lot of love from the people I care about lately and I always wondered what have I done to deserve such great individuals in my life. What I don’t think people realize is that the reason they hold me to a standard is because I’m really a reflection more so a compilation of everyone. I mean, if I associate myself with only a handful of people why wouldn’t I not want to be like them? And, if you’re part of that handful I kick it with then it should say a lot about what I think about you. I hope to not lose the perception people have of me as I go on with my day to day grind. In confidence, that is my greatest asset.
