Everyone is equal.
Men, Women, Black, White, Asian, Mexican Jewish American we’re all the same. I believe this statement to be correct. But if everyone is equal, why do I feel so different?

Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
Maybe you feel different, not because of your race, but more so how you feel about yourself as a person.
well if you look at Bill Gates who wouldn’t look at him as unequal.
He has $40 billion.A dirty drunk bum is not going to look equal.
So its in principal we are.
I know race has nothing to do with it, but I have no idea how I turned out the way I am. The only people I talk to are people I met over help.com, as people in my school are talking and laughing I’m sitting there not even saying a word. When I’m asked a question the teacher can’t even hear me answer because I’m so quiet. As others walk around and converse I sit there quiet and alone, as if an outcast. Hell the only thing my parents know about me is my name and my birthday, not because they don’t care but because I’m quiet.
Because we are all different and unique. That statement was a generalization, we are all human, have the same organs and daily functions. But under all of the specifics are all completely different people, we all see and feel things so differently. So I would have to disagree with that statement all Men, Women, Black, White, Asian, Mexican Jewish American, are different, but are all equal due to the fact that we commonly share the same differences.
We aren’t all equal. Its a silly and meaningless little phrase. We are all humans, we all share a lot in common. We all deserve fair treatment from eachother.
See what I’m getting at?
What does “equal” mean? Nothing. Maybe equally deserving of a CHANCE.
We are not equal. If we were, the world would be quite a different place.
I also thing like this,I think every people in the world is equal.

It’s definitely easier than you think. It will be little by little but as long as you’re trying it can change. Like, try to do things you wouldn’t normally do. When you answer questions in class speak up, if youre right what good will it make if the teacher can’t hear? You said when everyone walks around and converse you sit as if you’re an outcast. Did anyone cast you out? Or are you doing it yourself? Most of the time all the anxiety and shyness is in your head, if you’re friendly with others then they will most likely be friendly back.

I was this way for a long time.
I came to the point where I had to make a choice. Do I want to be heard? Can I take the possibility of embarrassment? Of failure?
I could. I did.
And now I am better for it.
Try.

XD I’ve been like this for 14 years of my life, I don’t think it’ll be a simple task lol. But your enthusiasm is contagious XD might try speaking up but I might feel to embarest to do it again.

Yeah and I’ve been a push over for longer than that. Until I learned to be confident and stick up for myself. All on my own because nobody can change something like that except for yourself. Like I said, it won’t happen over night but as long as your willing and you keep trying you can break any habit.
What are you embarrased about? Making a mistake, looking stupid? I guarantee you that will happen either way so that’s all clear lol
I used to be a pushover…my change was instead of answering snick comments or jerks with a responce I continued what I was doing, not talking, just ignoring. In a way, you could say the shyness and quietness WAS the change XD
I’m afraid of people judging me, holding an opinion. I know this sounds stupid but I’m also shy and quiet because I don’t want to be noticed. Wether its a good or bad thing I might have done, I don’t want anyone to know. Just pass by me like nothing happened. Not even talk to me. Or even know who I am. And so far, that’s true. No one knows who I am. This is also what I want to change, but to afraid to actually change.
Yeah but you need to understand that people are going to judge and hold an opinion of you whether you’re quiet or you speak up. People already have an opinion of you, they already know you as the person who never talks and you give them the freedom to make a judgement and have it stick. When you speak up, you can sometimes change that opinion and show people who you really are. If you really enjoyed not being noticed then this post wouldn’t exist. You know?

In a way yes but also no XD read some of my comments from the ‘blah blah blah’ post and you’ll see why :)
Hmmm… I don’t think equality is ever to be likely and I’m not too sure it’s desirable. The world will always have the leaders, the followers and the undecided. The leaders create opportunities and solutions, the followers make the leader’s decisions possible and the undecided are the ones who stand by and watch others live the life they should be leading themself.
In saying this, don’t be in a rush to decide who you are, it will come to you eventualy, just make the conscious decision to figure it out.
Good luck mate, xx

Why thank you kind sir/madame!! ;)
Equal =/= the same. Everyone deserves the same rights/privliges, but will use the different;y.
Why don’t you try small steps? If speaking up in class is a little too much, try practicing getting your voice out with some of your internet friends. There are voice chat programs like Skype, Steam, or Vent you could get on to work on it.
I’m less quiet now and I can’t really use skype no web cam
Well that’s great. :) And.. as long as you have a mic, Skype works fine. You kind of have to pay to use the group video call thing anyway.
Do you want to see my Bank Account???????Definately not Equal….”Poverty Line”….
