Dearest Haters,

I want each and everyone of you to know that your nonstop hate makes me stronger each and every day. Your insults make me smile. Your infatuation with talking about me brings me bliss. Knowing that I can impact you in such a way to waste so much energy truly touches me. I want to thank each and every last one of you. Because of you I strive so much more and push myself so much more to prove each and everyone of you wrong.

I will not become somebody to please you because that truly speaks fakeness. I want everyone to be proud of themselves, as am I. Do I love myself? No, I don't but I truly am working on it. To build a self esteem that grins in the bittest of lies and false idiocracy. But I am proud. Proud that I can express myself. Proud that I am not afraid of who I have become to this day. I'm proud of each and every flaw, even though I hate them at times. Proud that I have learned so much about my surroundings. Proud that I have everything to live for. But most importantly, proud to be alive.

So thank you, you're my biggest fans.

A little bit of advice:

Don't let others despiteful words get to you. I know the obnoxious stings of their words can get to you but guess what's the best medicine to heal those stings. Laughter. Laugh at how funny their insults are. Laugh and be happy within yourself. In the words of my dearest idol Maya Angelou, "If you don't like something, change it, if you can't change it, change your attitude." And indeed you must. Although it may feel at times that the whole world is breathing profound breaths down your neck or give you the most belligerent and stubborn looks, look away. Keep shining. Push yourself. Strive.

And another medicine to those painful stings, proving them wrong. You can do it. Plan for your future. You can be the most successful person, as long as you try. Have faith within your self. YOU are amazing. Everybody has amazing and recognizeable characteristics. Even the haters...

We are all linked and we must remember that.

We have been created to be us. To leave a legacy of success and so much more. A legacy of hope. Hope to change our world. We can do it. I believe in us. I believe in ME! Take an oath to yourself that at whatever time it is for you to grow up and take on a responsibility whether it be your career or kids, that you will leave behind a piece of you wherever and whenever you go.

So like I said let the haters talk. Because, in the end, you are living for NO ONE, but yourself. Stay true to LIFE and to YOU!
