so, i'm off to get my third tattoo within the next week. This tattoo is going to be very meaningful to me, of course, but also validate who i am as a person. I am not getting a tattoo with the title to a song because im a superfan, (though i really am) but because I love the meaning behind it. "Born This Way". Never will i regret who i am, because i was born this way. I am me. I cannot control how i was made or how i was created or what my fate is. No one can. We were ALL born this way. With that, theres of course the conservative view of this meaning and of different "lifestyles". Growing up, i was always told what to do. My teachers would yell at me over and over telling me not to color outside the lines or not to hold my pencil a certain way. and i would always just look up at them and think, "i'll do it how i want to do it." Thats how i was brought up. Do what YOU want to do, if it feels right. I look at the person i was in my past and the person i am now and there is a vast difference. I would always have the fight in me, but never the voice to guide me through. They used to tell me i was nothing. they would make me feel like trash.call me names that were so dirty and cruel that it made me HATE for the first time in my life. even ran me out of the school district. Yet, today; i hold no grudges. I dont want to get back at them for the shit they did, or the shit they said. I just want to live my life. I know and i fully understand that there will be people on the opposite side of the battle field until the day i die, but im okay with that. I will continue to fight for myself, and for all those who deserve to be fought for. I practice music. Music is my religion, my savior. what i turn to when i need answers. I go to music. and i was born this way, babbbyyyy.
