Absolutely cannot fold to pressure.
Never been a person stuck on appearances and opinions of others.
I never allow other's perception of me decide the choices and routes I take in life.
Now is no different.
Sometimes I feel a need to conform or tone down my over the top personality but I had to check myself.
I am not for everyone.
Everyone won't care for me or appreciate my opinion but you won't pressure me to be a replica of your collective opinions and ideas.
I am me for a reason just as you are you for a reason.
What I say or believe should not affect if you.
Why get up in arms because my thinking is different than yours?
I am who I am because I don't fold to pressure and now is no different.
Stop pressuring me to conform into your reality and allow me to live mine as I afford you the same opportunity.
I cannot say I understand and know everything you experience and nor do I pretend to.
If you haven't experienced the same as I have, how can you tell me my perception is not the truth?
Stop pressuring me to change my beliefs, because I won't.
I am heavily opinionated and will voice my opinions when I feel it is appropriate but I am not trying to convince anyone.
I have a voice and I will project it when I choose to.
Please feel free to disagree but don't pressure me to change because I absolutely won't.
