sometimes, it is amazing how people don't often realize that the world does not revolves around them. often having the need to have their thoughts heard, wanting to make a mark at this world, as if an extra opinion from you matters, as if the world is awaiting your debut. your likes and dislikes matters too. hence blogs exists. yes, sometimes i feel the need too, hence my blog exists.
and sometimes this thought affects people in a not so nice way, from the extend of worrying what the others might think of you.. to whether people like you enough, do they think of you in a certain way? or to the big question like 'ARE YOU GOOD ENOUGH?' or to little things like wondering why are people looking at you when you are merely out for a walk. was it your hair? or your midriff? or perhaps just the sum of your physical presence? face problem perhaps? okay, perhaps this is a bit exaggerated. but i bet everyone's thought do wonder when it comes to self-consciousness. well again, yea... i used to feel that way sometimes.. but it's not so much about competitions with the same sexes, or some feminist view of battling with the sexes (which i guess that's just the way humans are wired to be).
sadly, people judge.. it's true.. but doesn't everyone..
for me, it's about how comfortable you are as being your own person. competitions are healthy, but true competition lies in competing with yourself, not the rest of the world. i place a strong importance of being at ease with ourselves both emotionally and physically. it sounds effortless, but actually.. it's not as easy as it sounds. hence words like defense mechanism exist. so as to not upset the balance of both aspects.
therefore i think the keyword would be 'Temperance'.
