How does it feel to be a wall flower and how hard it is everytime to struggle to fit in on any new social connection, I do know that very well.
To avoid the awkward situation and survive we conform, but after awhile people blend in so well that they have long forgotten how to think, they do not realize their own wants and needs and let people tell them what they should like , what they should do , how they should feel and what they should be. They set their lives goals according to others expectation, let others define their happiness and pass those thoughts on to their children.
They compromise their souls so they could belong, but what do they belong to? really... Is it worth it?
I have always been a wallflower. It took me a big while to realize that I shouldn't live for others. I found that a lot of social concepts, beliefs and traditions are just ego boosters-- they exclude rather than include,they blind rather than open our eyes , yet worst of all -they make us loathe ourselves for being different.
I thank my friends for being there for me, when I was not that strong, they held me close and took me in, accepted me and loved me for what I was and they still do... when I felt not good enough but they smiled and say 'its ok'
This movie I just saw on the plane reminded me so much of what I said above, so check this out!
