How to compare myself to no one, but who I was yesterday
"Illuminating :)"
How I did it: When I was 8 years old I moved to another country, away from my home, my friends, everything I new. Naturally I was sad, but I was even more excited on the prospect of meeting new people and making new friends.
It took me two years to make friends, the place completely ruined my self esteem, I was possibly the happiest person in the world when I was told we were moving back to where we'd come from. However when I arrived back at my old school, everything was different, the people, the place, everything. That pretty much shattered my last shred of hope.
And now, since the first of September, I've been attending a new school, in a new country, with new people. And I have nothing more to wish from the world. I've never been happier with my life, my school, my friends. People here aren't prejudiced against anyone, it's incredible how we all get along, and well, I don't NEED to compare myself to anyone, cause people seem to like me here, and I like them, and that way everyone is happy and nobody has to worry about how they dress or act or talk :)
It's wonderful, really.
Lessons & tips: The people who mind don't matter and the people who matter don't mind.
:]
And that's the simple truth.
