Finding The Inner Me

Growing up without being financially stable.

Made me wonder if I was the only kid without cable.

 I wanted to be popular so bad but I couldn’t afford the things my friends had. In my eyes I seen a materialistic society. Kids trying to look cool instead of facing reality.  I didn’t take the time out to find myself. I was too busy tying to impress everyone else.  As I got older I strengthened my mentality. I found myself and who I was spiritually.  I learned to love myself no matter what anyone thought of me. Proved doubters wrong & became more than what they expected me to be.  I realized I was more than just optimistic. I have potential and will not be labeled as a statistic.
