What I want to say is through growing up, what I've discovered is that this world is a very vast, a very wonderful and beautiful one. And there are so many things to discover, but the most important journey I think all of us will go through is the journey in ourselves, to find our truth, to find who we are and what makes us happy. And in our culture, we are told that if we're beautiful, if we're skinny, if we're successful, famous, if we fit in, if everyone loves us, that we'll be happy. But that's not entirely true. And this is what I want to talk about basically. I’m going to start with a poem that I wrote when I wasn’t very happy. I actually wrote this a year ago, but again, as if you know depression, it comes back. It’s a reccurring thing that you can’t really sort away. Anyway.

Who am I? Who am I trying to be? Not myself. Anyone but myself. Living in a fantasy to bury the reality, making myself the mystery. A strong facade, disguising the misery. Empty but beyond the point of emptiness. Full to the brim of fake confidence. A God that will never be broken because I broke a long time ago. I'm hurting, but don't tell anyone. No one needs to know. Don’t show or you’ve failed. Always okay, always fine, always on show. The show must go on. It will never stop. The show must not go on, but I know it will. I give up, I give up giving up. I am lost. I don’t need to be saved; I need to be found. Basically, it’s kind of just the same reoccurring thing of, yeah, not knowing who you are and feeling lost.
