as I've thrived to adulthood since the last time i posted in this dying blog, i spent a lot of my time detesting the society.
why? well, i live in a mentally-exasperating society, where shallowness is viable in almost every aspects of life. everything-your beauty, social status, style, fashion sense, opulence, heredity- is incessantly criticized and scrutinized; hence, people are competing to climb and assess their way to the top.
not to be hypocritical, i cared about those things, not that i completely eliminate shallow things in my life. i fully agree that people should try to be the best versions of themselves, and criticisms are very much helpful in ameliorating people, encouraging them to be a respected person.
when these qualities have dictated the peak of the way people are judged, however, i have to object. one doesn't have to be flawless and popular to deserve being treated right, there's a lot of other things that complement a person as an amazing individual. if people just give chances for everyone to prove themselves, to unveil the brilliance lurking in them, and to embrace themselves- acting the way they want to be without being judged and harangued-, there will surely be more extraordinary people in this world.
as banal as this saying sounds, seriously, don't judge a book by its cover. don't kill a person's awesomeness just because he/she doesn't fit in the society. stand back, motivate, and give them chance to proliferate.
