Story: Meadow Fairview295Please respect copyright.PENANAlIojEihHwB
Meadow was beautiful. She was the most beautiful girl anyone had ever seen at her school. Long brown hair, sparkly blue eyes, fair skin. She was a sight to behold. But she didn't want to be perceived this way. Meadow wanted to be more than just a pretty face. She wanted to be a writer. Not a songwriter, even though her voice was better than Olivia Rodrigo, Alessia Cara, Demi Lovato and Camila Cabello's voices combined, but an author. She wanted to write books and poems and share them with not just her family, but the world. She wanted to be known for her incredible writing skills (which she absolutely had), not for her incredible looks.
Unfortunately, the boys at her school treated her unfairly. She would walk down the halls, and they would whistle or call her name. They would wink and smirk at her. Each time, she'd look down and feel crummy. A boy she liked, Russell, would never treat her like that, or so she thought. When they finally started dating, Russell treated her the same way as the other boys. He never saw what was inside of her, only what was on the outside. That happened to be when the talent show sign-ups appeared. Meadow signed up immediately. She knew exactly what to do. She was going to play The Rose Song.
She practiced the song day and night, practicing her vocals and her keys. She was astounding. She even picked out a stunning outfit for the occasion: a beautiful purple gown with red roses on the waistline. She felt like a princess. Finally, on talent show night, Meadow was ready to sing The Rose Song. She got onstage, and a few boys whistled. Instead of just rolling her eyes, Meadow told them firmly to stop. These were her words:
"Stop! I am not just another pretty face to look at! I am a human being, not a doll. I have feelings and personality traits and talents, just like everyone else! This is why I'm up here tonight. I'm here to show you all that I am more than a beautiful girl. So my song to all of you tonight is The Rose Song, originally written by Olivia Rodrigo."
And she sang.
After that day, things were never the same way. Everybody respected Meadow more than ever. She was known as the girl who spoke her mind.
Meadow liked that title a lot better than "The Pretty Girl".
It's your girl Myra! I just wanted to say a few words to the girls who can relate:295Please respect copyright.PENANAuvuUYU3j7V
When everyone is getting you down, always stand up and say, "No. You will not get me down. Not now, not ever. I will not be confined to your point of view."
Don't let anyone get you down, and have a magical day!295Please respect copyright.PENANAfeFKhuIIOB
