Adolescents
There are always questions that always come up in our consciences, why do I have a big nose? Why do I have pimples scattered all over my face? WHY WHY WHY! We can all ask our parents, our higher power or ourselves those stumbling questions but we will never get that direct answer that we have been so patiently awaiting.

Natalie didn't want anything more than to fit in, although she couldn't. that, I grew up unusual, that unforgivable sin among youth. In today's society we focus on more than we should, we tend to lean on what others think about us that we defocus off of ourselves.
