To The Guy Who Decided It Wouldn't Work,

I am glad that you chose for me. By doing that you proved to me that I am worthy of so much more. I am a young woman with the ability to do exceptionally greater than what is expected of me. Your lack of faith in me reminded me that I am able to do anything.

I can manage classes, work, family and a social life. Believe me, I may struggle at times and it may be more difficult than I would like, but I am always able to do it. I am even able to excel at it. Time management is difficult but with faith and belief in me, I am sure we could have worked it out. I have great charisma and strength despite my anxiety and self-doubt. I have high goals and aspirations in life, and I know that if I keep doing what I am doing I will achieve them and so much more.

I am proud of how I feel and the lifestyle that I have chosen. Due to the fact, that it makes me who I am today. I am strong and I am brave. I am capable of doing much more than you, or anyone thinks for that matter. I am able to formulate my own feelings and thoughts. And I am able to communicate them when I am ready and comfortable doing so.

I deserve more than to be told how I feel. I do not have to explain myself, let alone defend my feelings. How I feel is a part of me, that I am proud of and grateful for. We live in an amazing world filled with thoughts, emotions and opinions. Our country grants us the right of given speech. So I will use mine from now on. To stop people like you from choosing my destiny for me. I am me.

So a part of me wishes you could embrace me entirely: filled with stressed, extremely busy and full of love. But the rest of me knows I deserve so much more. I would ask you to take me as I am or don't take me at all, but I think we have already chosen.

No Thank You,

The Girl With a Voice
