Not fear of physical pain or death, but fear that you won't be accepted as you are.
To be fully accepted as you are by another person, is the most beautiful feeling in this world.
It is pure love.
Yet, few people dare to really be themselves and therefore surround themselves with people that don't really know or understand them, leading to them having to disguise themselves yet again.
Drop the mask you have and dare be fully yourself, be proud of your likes and dislike.
Voice your opinions and listen to others.
Shed the people around you that don't understand you and before you know it you will be surrounded by people that is worthy of you.
Dare...the reward is worth the risk.
HAHA now this had me thinking seriously I always think be yourself I mean there are sooooooooooo many people who like the same music and want to be the same and dress the same listen to the same thing but there are a few out there that are natural and be themselves which I think is common sense I noticed schools in america well not just there too in england as well probably everywhere school kids are sooo wound up trying to fit in instead of just getting on in life I think this is one of the biggest fears people have not being accepted but I think if you try to be something else or someone else yes maybe you'll fit in and get friends but that probably won't last long because there probably hiding and feel out of place too,,, beautiful poem as always
ReplyDeleteand that's where I think you got the name for your poem from dare as in dare to be different hehe
DeleteWell, I also think that accepting yourself is about realising that sometimes you like the same things as other people - just accept that and don't refuse yourself just becasue you want to be "special".
DeleteYES THAT IS ALSO VERY TRUE xxxx
