over the past few months, i have been approached by several people in restaurants, coffee shops, stores, at work, at school, and asked if i am that iam.becoming girl. most compliment the page and tell me that i have inspired them in some way. i’m not gonna lie, i’m so flattered. this is a major perk of having this account. but, what i think makes my page attractive is that its relatable. i’m simply putting into words what most of us think. but tbh, i’m actually pretty afraid that when people meet me they’ll be disappointed that i am just a regular, ordinary gal. the nerdy girl who plays euchre on weekends, instead of going to parties. the girl who is overly concerned with grades, meal prep, and wholesome memes. so, when i first meet people, i dont tell them i own this account. i’m afraid they’ll expect me to be something fabulous or that they’ll act differently around me.
but, we’re all ordinary, aren’t we? ordinary AND extraordinary, in some way or another. not one person is better than the next. it would be easy to get a big ego, but its never justified. every ordinary person has something about them, big or small, that can make a difference in another’s life. maybe your the expert on dogs or the family peacemaker. maybe you’re a bright spot in your office or an activist for a cause. maybe you are fun to watch on the basketball court or can drop a sick beat. we all got something.
once you embrace your special feature, your ordinary becomes extraordinary.
