I love you for that. You do not need to swerve either left or right to drive a point home. Once you are on good stance, maintain it.
Life I just like climbing a ladder. At times, it is either upward or downward but in all, movements have to be made.
You are not a tree. If where you are is not good enough for you, then you can make a move.
It is better to be at the right place while waiting for opportunities to come than to be at the wrong place. In all, it is even better to be a small success rather than being a big failure even though being a big success is possible.
Send this to your loved ones. It is even easier with the share buttons around. Life is only a burden to those who cannot understand it and the only way to make peace with your conscience is to always do the right things.
To think people would like you for being who you are not is crazy and to modify yourself in other to fit everybody's description is an indescribable form of madness, be who you are. The good you wait for comes when you braze up for it, don't go jumping from one trait to another without first understanding who you are. You have something in you that can make you great, just find out.
To bleach your skin colour is not good because it is not everybody that would like you even if you turn fair overnight.
