It is kind of amusing how human beings can be the both utterly pompous and shockingly self depreciating.
I won't lie, I often tend to just sit and wonder how much do I dwell in self pity and how highly influenced I really am by others' opinion. A human being is a social animal and that's no secret but we just tend to deny that at times. I wonder 'Why?'
In one of such moments of over thinking I arrived at this rather absurd conclusion. I don't believe it is something new and I surely don't believe it is the 'truth' but there sure is no harm to present it to my lovely readers.
What I believe is that we almost all of us have this innate need to stand apart. To be remarkable and if possible, unforgettable. We seek approval but won't dare to show that explicitly as to avoid looking needy. We say we don't give 'a rat's ass' but there is always that one person whose proud gleaming eyes make us gay and hopping crazy!
One thing I know for sure is that people like being liked. I won't want to be liked if I ought to compromise on the values I have set up for myself...yet, being liked is a lovely feeling.
In case you are wondering, I am well aware this is a big fat public ramble. But then again at times it is a relief when someone voices everything you fear to blabber about. I just want to be that sigh of relief.
Drop your thoughts and opinions as a comment or PM me. Your acknowledgement is highly appreciated.
Being liked is indeed a lovely feeling. And the perspective you have on life actually comes from the cage you were held captive in. And writing for me is when you scribble the life on paper. So giving opinion is always good...
