Chapter 2 - Your Own Idea

You just saw a movie with your BFF. As you walk out together, she tells you how dumb the movie is. But you have your own idea that it was good. Then you feel like you don't have a good idea because your friend thinks otherwise, and you think she will laugh at you. NEVER think that her idea is better than yours! Remember that she is a friend, and friends tell each other the truth.

Even if she laughs at you, tell her how it hurt you and ask her if she can try not to laugh. No matter what anyone says, remember that you did what was right. Besides, it doesn't matter who has the longest hair or who has the best opinion. You are special the way you are. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Can I have Meg here in Wilmore to follow me around and make me feel better about myself? This is so amazing!

Okay - if only all the fifty year old women I know would have this much wisdom!

Thank goodness it doesn't matter who has the longest hair!

At first I forgot that I was reading something Meg wrote and was shocked when I realized that a child said that! I know I did not realize how important it was that my opinion is ok until adulthood and to be honest, I still hide it sometimes. Thanks Meg!
