Life just is NOT.....
- Life isn't about keeping score.
- It's not about how many friends you have, Or how accepted you are.
- Not about if you have plans this weekend, or if you're alone.
- It isn't about who you're dating, who you used to date, how many people you've dated, or if you haven't been with anyone at all.
- It isn't about who you have kissed, It's not about sex.
- It isn't about who your family is or how much money they have, or what kind of car you drive.
- Or where you are sent to school.
- It's not about how beautiful or ugly you are.
- Or what clothes you wear, what shoes you have on, or what kind of music you listen to.
- It's not about if your hair is blonde, red, black, or brown, or if your skin is too light or too dark.
- Not about what grades you get, how smart you are, how smart everybody else thinks you are, or how smart standardized tests say you are.
- It's not about what clubs you're in or how good you are at "your" sport.
- It's not about representing your whole being on a piece of paper and seeing who will "accept the written you."
Life is.....
- But, life is about who you love and who you hurt.
- It's about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully.
- It's about keeping or betraying trust.
- It's about friendship, used as a sanctity or a weapon.
- It's about what you say and mean, maybe hurtful, maybe heartening.
- About starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip.
- It's about what judgments you pass and why.
- And who your judgments are spread to.
- It's about who you've ignored with full control and intention.
- It's about jealousy, fear, ignorance, and revenge.
- It's about carrying inner hate and love, letting it grow, and spreading it.
- But most of all, it's about using your life to touch or poison other people's hearts in such a way that could have never occurred alone.
Only you choose the way those hearts are affected, and those choices are what life's all about.
