Being accepting of the things that make you different is an important step to feeling accepted by those around you. Learning to accept these things is not going to happen overnight, but everyday is another move toward truly loving yourself. Allowing yourself to feel sorry for the things that make you unique, is allowing the pressure, to conform to a certain image created by society, to win. We as unique individuals must realize and accept that we will all do things differently. We will not all look the same, act the same, have the same goals, feel the same, have similar opinions, like the same type of clothing, see things the same way, learn the same, love the same, talk the same, think the same, or live the same. We will never be able to show the people around us that we accept their differences, if we can not accept our own.
