iron-inside:

I am not on this earth to be beautiful.

I was not born to be slim or sexy or svelte.

I am here to be strong.

To be meaningful.

To be a friend, a fighter, to do good in this world.

I am here to be well-rounded, well-grounded, and well-meaning.

I am here to lift others up, to care, to wipe away their tears.

I am not an inspiration. I am aspiration and respiration.

I am stardust, not a star.

I am heart and hands.

I just am.

I think your 20s are the hardest part of life. I mean, everyone goes on about how hard it is to be a teenager, but actually I think it’s tougher to be in your 20s because you’re expected to be a grownup and expected to earn your own living and be successful and I think you feel like a kid still.
