My Life



All my my life I used to think life is all about what people think about you what they say but I was as I was mistaken  Life is about you, it's about what you think about yourself and what you should do to make your life better. The day you start to realise that it is just you against the world it's is that very same day when you will see that life is better . When you finally see it you will see that you weren'tn't living your life you were  living their lives, you were not true 2 yourself.  You were what they want you to be and trust me when life is all pretense you'll never be happy .The day you start to realise that it is you and not them then you will see that life is life is just like a sky not everyone has the luxury to to board a plane not everyone has the luxury to reach the sky and  see those clouds. You should ask yourself who you are, what you want and what is the most amazing thing about you .I have asked myself this questions but sadly I don't have answers to them because truly speaking I don't even know who I am, who I want to be because all my life  I've been  the person that people wanted me to be ,I've been doing what they wanted me to do. I've been living a pretense .I  don't know but I haven't been myself I'm still trying to figure out who I am for real .I am still trying to figure out what really want in my life n what I even want to do in this world
