Some of the shit on Tumblr is ticking me off. Now, you’d assume I’d be talking about the people that say “omg im so hardc0re i cut evry night follow 4 follow!!!1!111!!!” but I’m not.

A lot of the people I follow have really nice blogs, but they post and reblog these little “lessons” that people, mostly girls, should know. The majority of them only apply to certain situations and people think of it of something they should live by, and that’s not right.

One of those posts about Tumblr that royally ticks me off is the posting I see about how girls should be skinny to be happy. There are all these blogs talking about being skinny and how much better your life would be if you were. You do not need to be skinny to be happy. You need to be confident and comfortable in your body. If you want to lose some weight, by all means, go for it if it’s a realistic goal. That doesn’t mean that you need to be a 00 to be happy with your life. To be happy with yourself, the best thing to do is to think of all the good things about you and when someone calls you a name or makes fun of you for something, ignore it. Most of the time, they aren’t even thinking about what they say, therefore it doesn’t matter.

Those are some pretty big things that I’ve learned over the past three years. Don’t take what someone else says and live by it. I don’t care what “social level” they are on or what “clique” they’re in, chances are, they don’t know what they’re talking about and don’t realize what they say affects other people the way it does.
