Society's expectations weigh heavily on Morgan from "summary" of Birthday by Meredith Russo
Morgan knew from an early age that she was different. She didn't conform to society's expectations of what a boy should be, but she also didn't fit neatly into the category of a girl. This made her feel isolated and misunderstood. As she grew older, the weight of society's expectations only became heavier. The pressure to conform was suffocating at times, making Morgan question her identity and worth. Everywhere she turned, there were reminders of how she didn't measure up. From the way she dressed to the way she spoke, Morgan felt scrutinized and judged. People expected her to fit into a certain mold, but she couldn't force herself to be someone she wasn't. Despite the struggles she faced, Morgan tried her best to navigate the complexities of her identity. She sought solace in the few people who accepted her for who she was, but even they couldn't shield her from the harsh reality of society's expectations. The constant pressure to conform weighed heavily on her, leaving her feeling trapped and powerless. Morgan longed to break free from the constraints of society's expectations. She yearned to live authentically, without fear of judgment or rejection. But the road to self-acceptance was filled with obstacles and setbacks, making it difficult for her to find peace and happiness. As she grappled with her inner turmoil, Morgan realized that the key to liberation lay in embracing her true self. It was a daunting journey, but one that she knew she had to take. Society's expectations may have weighed heavily on her, but Morgan was determined to rise above them and carve out her own path, no matter how challenging it may be.
