DON'T BE ASHAMEDA lot of people are so ashamed of themselves or their lives. Don’t be. What can you possibly be ashamed of? Your mistakes? Your bad traits? Your poor house? Your money? Your clothes?
We are all humans, you can’t be perfect. Why should you be ashamed of something. Everybody has something to be “ashamed” of.
So you’re not rich and don't have a big house. So, it’s normal, you’re not the only one. So you have parents with bad addictions. It’s not fun, but nothing you should be ashamed of, that’s life. So you have done unpure things. Again, you’re not the only one.
Keeping things a secret, because you feel sad about things and don’t want to feel worse by telling, that’s human. But don’t be ashamed. You’re a human being like other people. Shit happens, life goes on. We are all beautiful, don’t be ashamed.
Don’t be afraid of what other people think. It’s you that counts when it comes to your life, your opinion. People who judge you on things you’re ashamed of aren’t worth listening to, they’re immature.
It’s your inside that counts. And you shouldn’t be ashamed of things you did or didn’t do, things you do or don’t have. You still have yourself. As long as you have self-respect and self-dignity, nobody else can judge or harm you.
Don’t be ashamed, don’t bow your head. Lift your chin and say:”I’m me and I shouldn’t be ashamed of anything, because I’m me and I’m a great person.”
