There will be times when people will prefer to typecast you instead of trying to understand you. To them, if you’re intelligent you must be a nerd, if you prefer to listen instead of talk you’re bound to be asocial, if they know you like science they’re shocked to find you reading a romance book instead of a sci-fi one..
All this causes you to question if you can be yourself without being contradictory, if you should fit the mould that others have created for you, if maybe in some way you’re going against the set parameters of being.
But the truth is, there is no specific way to exist. There are no contradictions. You are who you are, and as long as you’re not hurting anyone there’s never a need to change or discard parts of yourself that don’t fit the space that people have created for you in their minds unless you really want to change.
Be true to yourself. What’s the point of being just like everyone else?
