Now isn´t the time to change yourself to fit into the world... you should be changing the world to accept you. To let you exist as you are, without being cut open and damaged.

About This Quote

Not everyone in life has the capability to change. Some people are just born to be the same. Their personalities and characteristics are so well-tuned that they don’t need any changes. However, if you want to change, you should try and change at your own pace. If you want to be a different person, then you should accept the person that you are and work on that person instead of trying to change your personality to fit in with the world.
