Narrative Essay On Changing Myself

757 Words4 Pages

When I was younger I can remember walking into school without the fear of being myself. I was who I wanted to be and I never thought about changing myself. Years go on and I see everyone changing, maturing at a very young age and I felt outcasted. Different from others I started changing myself due to the feeling of disapproval amongst others. I believe in life that we all fear change, we all fear being different from this change so we change who we really are. I believe that everyone feels this way because of their race, religion, culture, and etc. No one sees the beauty in our differences. The differences in others is what brings us together as a community and everyone should be true to themselves.

Scrolling day by day on social media, seeing what we believe is the perfect image of life. Everyday people believe they have to be a certain image to gain approval from people who will end up just hurting them in the long run.

I hope no one is afraid to show their differences because thats what makes us unique and being different is amazing, don’t ever lose sight of

  • Ralph Waldo Emerson's Greatest Accomplishment

    528 Words  | 3 Pages

    Thesis: I agree with Ralph Waldo Emerson because I feel that you have to try to stay the same person and not change your way of life because of something that has happened to you in the past. I agree with Waldo Emerson's statement, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment” because if you change yourself because of something that happened to you, you will never be the same person everyone knows. Another reason is peer pressure. You always need to be the same person because change can be very bad and affect your future. You can notice if something happens to a friend and they change, and when you see that you need to help them break that change because it will stick with them forever.
