My favorite literary piece is entitled Revenge of the Girl with Great Personality that is written by Elizabeth Eulberg. It is a realistic/drama, taking place in the world of a teenager named Lexi Anderson who has to live with her mom and her seven-year old sister, Mackenzie, who goes to beauty pageants daily .
As I read the piece, I was having mixed emotions because it tackles not only about how the society’s standard for beauty is controlling us but also our will to do what other people or our parents wanted us to and our right to speak up and to tell them what we really wanted to do and what makes us happy. It changed the way I look at my self – the way I handle the pressure the society has given me. I became braver and stronger knowing that I am not alone in this battle and that I am not the only one experiencing it.
It is not bad to change or to try to fit into a mold of a person just to be loved by many but it is in you if it makes you happy. As my favorite line on the story said, “I think the only way for me to truly be happy is to be myself by myself.” because if being you makes you happy, be you. Because you do you.
