So if you are aware of whom you are and stand up for yourself that should be a good thing right?
Apparently not!
I have found out that if you know yourself, with the good and the bad, you are rather a suspicious character in today’s day and age.
Apparently this is something that might be ok but do not talk about it.
Well, I do not really talk about it but it affects my every day.
I mean I try to live according to what brings pleasure in my life.
I am not afraid to say no! Never been really!
Even very early in life I got told that I had a huge ego at times. That I did not mix well with others due to me not sharing the opinions held by the company in question.
I found out the hard way that I was dreadfully boooooring when not jumping for joy when offered a drink or partaking in some (according to me) lame or even dangerous situations.
When not participating in activities that for me gave little pleasure I got told that I should indeed try hard to grow myself a personality and not just a huge EGO.
Hmmm……this kind of treatment have made me think a lot about how I treat others over the years.
I do not EVER want to make another person feel as I felt.
If anything I want all to be able to enjoy the fantastic feeling of actually liking yourself and see how this in itself will make your world better.
I do not see myself as a person with a huge ego (obviously I might be completely delusional and be the most self-centered person on the planet….what do I really know, right? Lol) but more as a person that finds it interesting to know myself and what I like and do not like.
I feel comfortable in saying “No” if asked to participate in an activity that I find uninteresting or even impossible for me to perform. Does this make me (and similar people with the mindset as mine) boring or does it make me strong and independent? I like to think that it is important not to push people when they are aware of what likes and dislikes they have.
Sure life pushes you at times but the importance is to be who you are and not fall into the trap of becoming just like all the pushers. I do not really get pleasure by forcing anothers to do something that they clearly do not want to do. What is up with that?
Instead I find it interesting to try to relate to new things and by my own initiative learn and explore myself and life. This gives me pleasure and makes me a person that is able to interact with people more softly and with me being able to find out more about themselves and not hide from who they are to satisfy the general opinion about what you ought to be.
