Through out my life my mom and I have been really close, and since my teenage years began she has made her personal mission to give me advice, even if I don't want it.(: A constant life lesson that she has instilled in me is, be yourself. When first hearing this I thought of course I will, who else would I be! It never registered that I would try to be or act like anyone else. My friends have said that I've always been very confident , someone who is not afraid to stick out in a crowd, or to be my own person.
As the years progressed I realized what my mom had meant. She was referring to peer presure, and not doing things just because others were. Also not trying to blend in and be like everyone else. Now whenever it occurs to me that I'm being pushed to do something or put in an uncomfortable situation, I just think back to her wise words, be yourself.
