    You suggested on my profile that I should read this quite a while ago and I'm sorry it took so long. But I'm truly glad I read it. For one, this message is simply beautiful, as everyone else has probably told you and the writing itself is amazing. The analogy was very clever and easy to understand. Great for grasping an audience's attention and nothing you said was even close to being out of place. Everything fit so perfectly.

    It was so easy to relate to this as well, considering almost everyone has felt this way at some point in their lives. Yet, a lot are not able to quite put it on paper, or in words the way that you did.

    All in all, this was simply inspiring.

    Yes, very much. How you came up with the analogy alone is breathtaking.

    I am very impressed with your journal. And I have no regrets reading this.
    I feel the same way; being neglected and feeling like my life is an appendix. Well, I don't agree to that anymore. Your story has very well inspired me and your readers. Please continue inspiring.
    And you've asked if there's anything to improve on? There are no wrong grammars that I've seen but typographical ones. If you want criticizers to read this, make sure what they read is something they want to read.
    GOOD LUCK!

    woah man, this is the $h!t! <3
    i totally agree with all this and have thought it before!
    Note: This person is my new best friend!<3
    i totally understand the whole "might as well remove me now" thing. (says the girl who has tried commiting suicide multiple times and was recently set free from friggin' suicide watch) hahaha.

    And it's true, people do size us up and put us in categories!
    the freaks. the misfits. the crazy @$$ holes. the pshyco b!tche$.
    and i think we should stand up and stand out! xD
    if they think we're freaks, lets be freaks. if they think we're misfits, let's embrace it! and show 'em in the future while they're takin' orders from a drive thru and we're the artists, authors, and musicians their kids look up to <3 haha. or when we're their bosses xD that'd be funn. haha!
    this journal entry was great.
    i love it!(:
    it's my favorite<3

    There were a few grammatical errors that kind of distracted me, but other than those..

    I really did enjoy it. It has such an essence of rebellion for something that is hardly rebellion at all, but reminds me a bit more revolution. Then I guess you need rebellion for revolution, but all that's aside :]

    I know I've struggled with things like that in the past, and it really ties in to finding internal peace when there is external war. But still keeping yourself together and tied loosely. I enjoyed it, thanks(:

    This is so so so good! It's inspirational and really gets to almost everyone in some way or another. I always believed that in the world there were places for everyone, but I've never heard anyone state it so clearly and so beautifully. thank you for that.

    This is pretty heavy, and not so much my cup of tea anymore. I've gone through all of this and much of what you say in this well written journal reminds me of what i once felt like. To be honest though, i know why i was like that. I didn't want to be like everyone else, or be drowned in societies demands. Its funny how it sounds like a rebellion toward the end. As if all the different were to unite. In reallity, we are still a society, we are like each other in more ways than people wish to accept. I love this journal and i thank you for coming to me and asking me to indulge in this because i have seen what i did wrong and i know never to go back to that stage because it drowned me more and more. And never realized all the fun, all of the great things that i can have. Different people say we are not prejudice or hurtful. Simply by rejecting other's wishes may hurt them, not wanting to be like someone because you don't want to be like them is an equal definition of prejudice.

    I left these kinds of things behind. Wondering. One piece of advice i can hand down to anyone who feels like this. Stop questioning things so much, Don't try and find every answer because it won't come. Just stop worrying about everything and LIVE!!! Its easy just stop questioning everything, it brings you harm. Trust me i know.

    So true. From moving so much I wander around from group to group but while everyone fits together I always seem to be left out or pushed aside. Do I have friends? Yes. Do I consider them friends? No. But this made me break down into tears, the big crybaby I am, and realize I need to be myself and stop forcing other people's ideas of what I should be and just be me.
    I love the quote by the way.
