In my life I’ve met some pretty interesting people. Some have stayed in my life and shown me that it’s ok to be different, some shown me that it’s ok to party and let loose every now and then and then there are those that have taught me life lessons to not let my guard down any longer. But one thing is that I would never change is myself.
I’ve been asked a question, which seems to be on a lot of people’s mind when it comes to me, “if you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?” My response was nothing. There is not one thing I would ever change about myself. I know I have flaws and imperfections but that makes me who and what I am and if I change that that would be changing me and I’m not going to change me for anyone.
Of course some people have a problem with my answer and have called me “to mature” or “self righteous” or even “narcissistic” which if anyone knows me I am not. My response is what one would call confidence in one self. If you think it’s selfish then fine. Think what you will and what you want but I know that it’s anything but selfish.
What people don’t care to understand is that not everyone is the same. Yes there are superficial people out there that want to be wanted and would do just about anything to either fit in or be noticed, but then there are these other people like myself that are ok with what we have and what we are and most are intimidated by it. There’s no need for intimidation because we’re ok with it. We don’t seek others approval or acceptance because we accepted ourselves and that’s the only thing that matters.
Until next time,
Stephanie
