“If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don’t want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it, too.”

“I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.” 

-Perks.

I'll be the why to your because...
Because..

I am not perfect.
But

I know I'm worth it.
And

I gotta believe,

 there has to be a you
For every girl like me.
