Personal Quote

I chose my quote, "be yourself because everyone else is taken" because it inspires me not to let other people tell me who I should be and what is the "right" way to live. This quotation is representative of me because I do try my hardest to be myself around everyone. I think this sometimes is difficult depending on the group I'm around and what they believe is "acceptable", for example, my listening to heavy metal while sometimes being stereotyped as someone who wouldn't, based purely off of looks. If I truely lived this quote to the fullest extent, my life would be different because my teachers, family, parents, friends, and church would all know the same me, which could end up as a bad thing, as most of these groups and I do not believe in the same things.
