Ya Feel Me?
Do you ever feel like you're not good enough? It's not that you're bad at something, you're just a little less than what people expect you to be. And the worse part is that you don't even have "A thing". That one thing that makes you special, that one thing that you're really good at, something that sets you apart from the rest. You have things you like to do. Like sleep; I'm really good at sleep, but that counts for nothing. I enjoy writing, but in all honesty, everyone enjoys writing. And I'm not exceptional at it, I'm not better than anybody else. I play the piano, but everyone and their brother plays the piano. I'm not even that good at the piano, at least not as good as others. That's another hard thing; there's always someone whose better. You may be "Good" at something, like dancing. Let's say you have been a ballerina ever since you knew how to walk, you eat, sleep, and breathe ballet. You practice four hours a day, five days a week, and you finally made it to the audition for this big ballet company. You are so excited, you've been waiting your entire life for this; you're the best in your class, your teacher adored you, but then when you get there, and you see this girl, and you see that girls audition and you know that she's better than you; you know that she practices five hours a day, six days a week, you know she loves it just a little more, she wants it just a little more. Suddenly, all your hard work didn't even matter, the praises mean nothing, the bruises and blisters were all for nothing, because in the end, someone is always better.
