EMBRACE

 (E) Embrace, who you are. Tell them the story of your scars. Do not be afraid, of what you have been through; Depression, Bullying, humiliation, embarrassment, discrimination, physical and sexual abuse. If you were in there shoes, what would you do?

 

Let the (M) memories be, the guidance through your crocked ways. Accept the good and bad moments in your passed. Do not let your life be forgotten, because what they had to say. This is your story, now write the start of a new glory.

 

(B) Be the person you want to be, homosexual, bisexual or even strait no matter what you choose, it’s your choice, but there are those who will stop you from becoming what you want to be. Always remember to say “it’s not about you, it’s about me”. Open your eyes wide, do not let the medium, family, friends and others influence you to change. “You are who you are”, do not be deceived and do not be manipulated, because you need to believe what is truly in your heart.

 

(R) Risk it all and make that sacrifice. “Be the change you want to see in the world.”– Mahatma Gandhi said the change starts with you, so be that change. Sometimes it hurts to lose, but what good is it if nobody stands up for the truth. I stand not only for myself but those who cannot. I stand for those who tried and gave up and I stand because I want to make that change and want to live in a world without pain, is that so strange?

 

(A) Except those who are different, those who do not fit in. Who needs hate, war and envy? It only ends in one way, death, suffering, and misery. Every single person is different, no two people are the same in race, body mass, height, weight, culture and we can go on and on and find no exact similarities and yet there is always this desire to judge oneself for what? To make yourself feel good. This ism’t right and it ism’t fair for people everywhere, it’s not about if we can make the change, but approximately should we?

 

Now listen here, before we do anything we have to have the (C) Courage to stand up and speak but also sit down and listen to what other people have to say. We all have our own opinions on things that matter to us in life and in every single day. Courage ism’t something you are born with, it’s something you get taught. Also, confidence come with courage, yeah I forgot. You need to have the courage to stand up and the confidence to speak up, we should also encourage people to do the same. It’s not about standing up to get the fame or standing up to be nobleman but standing up because you know its the right thing to do.

 

How can we live with one another without (E) equity? We create and have all this cool and expensive technology, and we cannot find the main ideal way of peace and harmony. Fairness will no longer exist if we do not except everybody’s differences and individuality. It will not maintain the way it is today, if people do not allow change and add a few adjustments in today’s society. Do not get me wrong… everybody has their own ideas of peace, justice and equality, but how we are all going to work together and successfully follows these different ideas, honestly?

 

Remember, (E) embrace who you are and share the stories of your detailed scars. Let your (M) memories, both good and bad show you your place in this world. (B) Be the person you want to be, and do not let nobody choose your destiny. (R)Risk it all, even if that means to come out of your comfort zone and sacrifice even if that means loosing everything you have been fighting for. (A) Except everyone no matter who they are, discrimination only leads to hate, war and envy. Stand up with (C) courage, and speak up with confidence and show them you matter too. Peace is nothing without (E) equity. If we want to survive and live together with diversity, first we have to balance the odds with even. If you want to see a world without change and pain, so be it just remember everything is like a long ongoing cycle and will stay exactly the same.
