This Is Me, Damn It!

There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:
This is me damn it!
I look the way I look, think the way I think,
feel the way I feel, love the way I love!
I am a whole complex package.
Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away!
Do not try to make me feel like less of a person,
just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be
and don't try to change me to fit your mold.
If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.
When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%,
good and bad,
you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.
