I would rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I&#039;m not.<br /> I am a dreamer and no one will ever take that away from me.<br /> People may say that you will be nothing but you may say Watch me!

Cursing,fighting,blessing,laughing. Talking strait,beating around the bush. Being transparent, being opaque. Being human,being a monster. Loving,hating. This is what us humans are. We are a contradiction. We are hypocrites. We may say we arn't but when you think about everything, we really are.

Habit, addiction. Lies, white lies. Friends,enemies. We are humans. We are a contradiction. We don't like what we are so we find words to make it sound better. Humans. Humans. What are you going to do now? Change it or keep living it.

We were doing a group study at our church youth group and we started talking about how we always try and ignore problems,how we always worry more about our pride instead of what is right. I think we can all do better in our lives so let's start today....

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
