I find that the older I get, the less I care about what people think about me. Anyone else feel the same way? I wish this transformation started sooner because when I was younger, tripping in the hallway at school was actually the end of the world. Now it’s think what you want, say what you want, tell people what you want – doesn’t bother me much. It’s human nature to judge, to talk, to think we have the other person all figured out. Nine out of ten times, we’re probably off on a tangent. Things aren’t always what they appear to be but we’re all suckers for gossip, so that’s the crappy part. If you can walk away from gossip, raise your hand. You deserve a star. On the flip side though, if we’re all comfortable and confident enough in our own skin, we can keep doing our thing even with the whole world laughing. Kind of like the story of Noah’s Ark (lol). You know yourself better than anyone else and you please who you want to please and that’s that. Happily ever after.
A little reflection.
