Let It Be

A while ago, a friend told me to listen to the song Follow Your Arrow by Kacey Musgraves. I immediately fell in love with it. This song is all about doing whatever the hell you want and being who you are! 

Then, a few weeks ago my good friends Sariah & Jaki wrote somehwhat similar posts, and since then those posts have been some of my favorites ever, so I will be kinda piggybacking on their posts because I loved them so much.

It's completely okay to not be okay.


Everyone's been there, and everyone has felt like crap at certain points in their life. It's okay to be scared to try new things, and it's okay to fearless. It's okay to have crazy hair days, and it's okay to get up a little earlier just to do your hair everyday. It's okay to wear a sweatshirt more than one day a week, and it's okay to get overdressed more than once a week. It's okay to listen to the same song over and over again, and it's okay to not like certain music. It's okay to dream about the impossible, and it's okay to be skeptical about certain things. It's okay to fall head over heels in love, and it's okay to not like anyone at all. It's okay to stay up until 4am, and it's okay to go to bed whenever you want. It's okay to be a flirt and it's okay to not be one. It's okay to miss someone, and it's okay not miss anyone. It's okay to have a broken family, and it's okay to have a picture perfect one.

It's okay.

IT'S PERFECTLY OKAY.

Everyone is different, and we all need to cherish that our individuality, even if somedays we cry ourself to sleep because of it. Ever since we were little kids, all we have ever been told is to always be ourselves. But then when we are ourselves, people don't like it. So what if you like being crazy and loud and weird? BE CRAZY AND LOUD AND WEIRD!!! Don't give a shit about what anybody thinks, because that is who you are and you should have fun living your life, especially your teenage years. Don't stop being you and doing what you want just because other people might think it's a weird thing to do. In fact, a lot of people admire those who aren't afraid to be themselves.

You should be out there living your life and doing what you feel like when you feel like it without having to have the voice of society in the back of your mind telling you not to because it's weird.

Ten years from now, you won't want to look back on your teenage years and say, "I wish I had done that." You are going to want to look back and be able to say, "Hell yeah I did that crazy shit."

Just let it be, and go with the flow. In the end you'll be glad you did.
