Little things


Author's note: My favorite band, One Direction just released a new single called Little Things  and I love this song so much so I decided to write a story off of it. I will be trying to have a high proficient thesis statement. Also I will be trying to have advanced word choice. 

Imperfections. Everyone has them, but that doesn't mean you are ugly, or stupid, or even ignorant. You might not love the sound of your voice on tape, or you never want, to know how much you weigh. The truth is that they make up, well you. In the song Little Things by One Direction, those five boys tell you that those small imperfections are what make you beautiful, no matter what you think.

When someone listens to this song, they can't help but have one or two tear drops fall from their eyes. The song was just amazing, it has so much emotion in it. It had really helped people realize that everyone is perfect just the way they are. No matter what anyone else says about them. They are p-e-r-f-e-c-t period. No one can change that no matter how hard they tried. They will never change that.

Another lesson this song says that everyone judges other people without getting to know them. For example, you could see a really stick skinny girl and envy her. But truth is she might be suffering from Bulimia. Or you could see an overweight girl and think she's fat, but the truth could be that no matter what she ate or how much she exercised she would gain weight. You might even notice a girl that is in great shape, that you call an over achiever. Though she might over exercise her body so she can get any scholarships she can get, so she can go to the college of her choice that her parents might not be able to pay for so it becomes cheaper. You might even see a really smart girl that is like three years ahead of her class, that you call a nerd. She might stuff her face in a book, because she doesn't have any friends and she tries to drown her sadness into her work. As you can now see you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.

Now you can see that this song is very meaningful, and has taught me a lot about things I didn't realize were a problem before I heard this song. Even though these are some of the biggest things I learned a lot of small things also. Like even though this band is now super stars worldwide they are still down to earth and care a whole lot about their fans. I found this out because in one of their interviews they had said that this song was dedicated to their fans, and to remind them that they are beautiful no matter what anyone says, and that is exactly what I learned in this song. That everyone is perfect. And that is why, 'I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you’ve smiled, you've never loved your stomach or your thighs.'
