Be stronger

                  Think smarter

Be faster

                Work harder

Be thinner

                 Be taller

Be smaller

                 Be bolder

Be truer

                Be louder

Be quieter

Assert yourself— but not too much.

Be quick— but don't rush.

Be real— but make others happy, always.

Be proud— but don't over-praise.

Strive for more— but be grateful.

Be beautiful— even if it's painful.

Be a threat— but be a part of the sisterhood.

Be kind— but never tell a falsehood.

Speak your mind— but don't complain.

Be—

Be—

Be—

But no one's bothered to ask me

        if I'm really happy.

                                   No one's bother to ask me

if this is who I want to be.

            No one's bothered to ask us

                      if it's too much.
