Us as teenagers, we all are diffrent.
Sometimes our diffrences make us lift a thousand pounds, sometimes our diffrences helps us lift a thousand pounds off. Our diffres as teenagers can leave us with our heads down, sometimes our heads up. Wether we are quite, loud, or weird, one day after 4 years of critisizm will end, and make us stronger to our world of critisizim. We will find as we mature, we can only critisize our selves, its you who makes your self. Mind over matter is what we need to remember, Let God lead us, and let our selves be one all together, no worries, just one.

Note:  I am in 11th grade in high school. And i have learned a lot about many diffrent people. In our mind high school is a big popularity contest. but you as a teen need to overcome that. If you call your self a loner, your solution lies within your shame, the truth  is you have no shame, you are who you are dont be afraid to speak to people and be a positive person. As for those of you who belive in popularity you will soon learn that it will get you no where in life, one day we will all see that life is all about critisizim and he must take mind over matter and overcome it one step at a time...

Diversity is important, because humanity is a species that reaps the rewards of all of her children, brushing their mistakes under the carpet, most of the time.

Edison was different, and he invented the lightbulb.  We all use lightbulbs.  

Diversity keeps humanity strong.  Too often do people strive to be similar to the cultural standard.

We should all simply be ourselves.  

Nicely put, lifeslight.  Even if I disagree with you narrowing the perspective to a religious one (the point you are making exists beyond religious boundaries, and should be relatable by everyone), I still think you've hit an important point.

Yeah, Religious or not religious my message is to everyone, and i belive that no one should strive to be like evryone else, but that doesnt mean not talk to anyone...

Ah but being ourselves is all well and good in theory. In the end, isn't man merely bowing down to idealistic expectations that someone of a perceived higher value places on them? We are but mortal beings, the blind leading the blind. Strive for individuality - just make sure that you retain it.

I completely disagree about your religious statement but other than that an interesting read.

Imagination=nostalgia for the past, the absent; it is the liquid solution in which art develops the snapshots of reality.

Man! I have to start talking now? *shakes her head* But I was so comfy...Lots of good stuff in here. "it's you who makes your self"--I liked that. Yay for 11th grade!
