Demons

     We all possess an evil influence. The negative thoughts of how we look, the figure of our bodies, or our culture, and sometimes the question of who am I. Our insecurities fester within our inner souls that rot the purities we are born with. As we walk through a crowded room, we’re overwhelmed with the feeling of someone else’s eyes piercing right through us. However, these negative forces begin within us. We listen to the fiend that whispers into our conscience and become apprehensive of our self-worth. But what is the truth?

     When you stand in front of the mirror do you see yourself or the reflection of constant rejections from the demons possessing your mind? As you look into your weak core, you can see the beast burrowing and eating your individuality as you try to hide behind your dignity.

      It’s time to free you from the wicked forces. Stop tormenting yourself with thoughts of doubt. Accepting who you are is the foundation for your true happiness. Look at yourself in the mirror and dig beneath the foulness. Once you expose your inner self, you can introduce yourself to your demons.  By revealing your true identity to your demons; they will no longer cause you harm. When you begin to accept who you are, so will your demons. Through acceptance, a friendship will build between you and your demon, turning your inner monster into a friend.    

Free Spirited

I'm eating in the food court at Queens Center mall, and noticed a pretty teenage girl who was dressed in a Hip-hop fashion. She had on fitted purple turtle neck with a grey thick waist belt and grey knee high boots. She was leaning up against the wall looking down at the cell phone in her hand. Her jewelry was a layered necklace and big hoop hearings. Minutes later, a punk rock teenage girl approaches the other teen; and plants a big kiss right on her mouth. They hugged so tightly, you can see the enthusiasm in their faces.

I was so shocked! I couldn’t believe what I had just seen. Two girls openly displaying their affection in the middle of a food court at mall. This was considered taboo when I was a teenager. So I thought okay maybe they decided to meet up so they hang out on their own and not feel judged by anyone. Ahh no, I was wrong. A couple of minutes later a group met up with them. It was like this teenage couple was part of this co-ed click. Everyone was in their comfort zone; I was so amazed.

This teenage couple made me realizes how times have changed from when I was there age. They also made me realize that our social customs have changed too. This is why we shouldn’t live our lives by the social norm. What might be bizarre now might be perfectly fine later. But, who's willing to wait for that time to come. I'm willing to feel like that teenage couple who were so happy just to be together holding hands, and hanging out with their friends. Other people's opinions didn't matter. They looked so free spirited, having fun living in that particular moment. So Beautiful.

    
       

Fat people, Hang Out

Forget about the type of clothes you have in your closet; forget about how you look in your clothes. If  "You" didn't care about the calorie intake you had for that day, than it shouldn't matter how others see you. What's important, is that you go out! Stop feeling depressed on how you look and show every shallow person out there how beautiful you really are. I understand this may be very difficult, and it must take a big person to step up. So let's stop wasting time. The clock is ticking and life is too short. Let us see what we have been missing. Go Hang Out!
