There's one question that's been on my mind for years now; why am I so shy when I require socialization to be happy? I took to google and found the term "introverted extrovert". Of course, I found it on urban dictionary, so I could have a completely incorrect term, but I think it's close enough...

We are all judgmental pricks, and that's okay.

You do not have to love your imperfections!

We hear it all the time, the spiel about how you have to love your imperfections. They make you you! They give you character! They make you human! We all have them! These things may be true, but you really don't have to love your imperfections, you just have to tolerate them. It doesn't mean...

Never apologize for a justified emotion!

Far too many people feel as if their emotions are a bad thing. They believe that they're inconveniencing those around them by being sad or angry or maybe even happy. I've noticed too many of these cases to just remain silent about it. NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR A JUSTIFIED EMOTION! If something bad...

"Society did it!"

You guessed it folks, this myTake is all about the meaning given to the word "society". I'm sure you've heard all about how horrible society is, right?

Never bash someone's passions!

The title says it all. Not only should you refrain from passing judgment on someone else's passions or hobbies, but don't brush it off like it's nothing. The only thing I have ever actually liked about myself has been my photographs. I won't sugar coat it, I have confidence in my picture taking...

Anxiety, the Enemy!

When my doctor told me I may have anxiety, I didn't argue. It felt obvious to me that it was there. I worried over things that didn't need to be worried about, I had a constant tight feeling in my chest as if I had this weight on me that would never come off, and I would panic for no reason at...

Why you gotta be so rude? Dontcha know I'm human too?

No, this myTake has nothing to do with that song. I just thought that the specific line worked well for this. So, who here has an answer? Why are people so damn rude? I mean, we're all human. Every single one of our hearts beat, and sooner or later, they will all stop beating. So in the mean...
