How many times have you compared yourself to others and found yourself lacking? Whether it's a friend, family member, or celebrity. You can't afford the latest fashion trends, so you feel out of place. You may be smarter than others, or not as smart as some, that doesn't mean you're stupid. People just pick up on things easier than others. You may feel there is a lot expected of you by your family. If you have siblings--you may not be what's called "The Golden Child", and your family compares you to the one who is and nags at you to do better, even though you're doing your best. Or they may have decided what they want you to be when you grow up--even though you're not interested in their plans for you. Some people may avoid you because you don't have the image they want to project. Some may think they're being "kind" and say something that is cruel, and they don't have a clue. Don't starve yourself to be thin like others, don't take diet pills or drink caffeine filled energy drinks that can harm your body. NEVER compare yourself to anyone else. God made you, and you are a unique individual that has wonderful qualities that are uniquely yours. If you feel depressed or have suicidal thoughts--GET HELP. Don't do anything illegal or immoral. God put you on earth for a reason, it may come to light later, in His time. Just remember that no matter how much crap is thrown at you, you are a good person and God is always with you and has your back. You're not alone. And the people you compare yourself to have their own issues to deal with. No one's life is perfect.
BE YOURSELF.
