UNSTOPPABLE
I AM UNSTOPPABLE. All of my challanges, all of my struggles, all of my let downs have made me UNSTOPPABLE. Being bullied because I knew all the answers, being bullied because my hair was too long, being bullied because I smiled too much, being bullied because I am UNSTOPPABLE. Being too young to understand why my father kept running into things, not grasping why when I sat directly on the side of him and stared at his facial features he never noticed. Not understanding that he was losing his vision, not realizing that he had an eye disease that would affect me in so many ways in the years to come. Thinking I had to to give in to peer pressure just to fit in, thinking I had to act like someone who wasn't me just to say I'm like them. Time and time again having to face unsupportive family members who made it their business to discourage, but I will never give in to the idea of defeat, weakness, fear, discouragement because I am UNSTOPPABLE. I will not succumb to my years of experiencing being bullied relentlessly day after day, I will not succumb to my many doubts that are rushing through my brain, I will not succumb to people who pray and hope I fail. Never seeing my father frown, never seeing my father give in to his weakness, never seeing my father give in, never seeing my mother throw in the towel because it became too overbearing. I will never stop, nor will I falter. I will use my battles and my obstacles to remain UNSTOPPABLE. I AM UNSTOPPABLE.
