You May Not See It Right Now, But You're Worth It

One day you will have your turn.

You May Not See It Right Now, But You're Worth It
The Odyssey Online

When is it going to be my turn?

When am I going to have the things that everyone else has?

When am I going to get that job, that car, that love, that happiness?

When am I going to feel like I am important? That I am good enough? That I am worth it?


These questions continue to pile up and up until a breaking point is felt.

These questions take away sleep, an appetite, a will to keep moving forward.

These questions crush and destroy.


And yet,


These questions build and form.

These questions bring peace, hunger, and the ability to let go.

These questions continue to build a foundation until a drive is found.


You see, one day you will have your turn.

One day you will have more than what everyone else has.

One day you will have that job, that car, that love, that happiness.


However, today you are important.

You are good enough.

You are worth it.


Don't ever allow the materialism in this world define who you are because you are worth more than you could ever imagine.

But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
