This One's for You

Nothing needs to introduce this.  Just read it and you'll understand.

In life, you’re not going to please everyone. Unfortunately, the majority will not agree with you in most situations. They might think they know everything about you, your intentions, and just about everything else. And with this “knowledge,” these people will try to put you down until you can’t take it anymore—until you give up, admit they’re right, and do it their way.
However, you have the power to decide whether you want to be the person to drop everything you fought for and go with the crowd, or if you want to be the person to look the haters in the eyes and tell them off. It’s your choice.
As much as their jabs hurt, as much as their judgmental minds affect you, and as much as you know they are talking about your choices behind your back, you have to be strong enough to know you can get back up. You don’t have to listen to them.
Do everything you want with as much passion as you have. Believe in yourself with a thousand times more power than they have trying to take you down. The people against you aren’t the ones to keep you down; you are the one with the last say. You have the ability to tell yourself they’re wrong, and you will ignore their shit-talking, disrespectful, inconsiderate comments.
Tell yourself they don’t know even half of what’s actually happening in your life. Tell yourself they’re wrong, and refute against them. Do whatever you can to let them know you don’t care what they have to say, what they think of you, or even what kind of person they set you out to be. You know it’s not true.
You come first. You are the one who knows everything that needs to be known; you know the people who are worth hanging out with, you know the truth behind every story you tell, and you know to believe in yourself when you’re getting pushed down.
It’s your choice. Don’t let those people take away something they never had to begin with—your passion, your truth, and your choices.
Get back up and prove them wrong.
