I get your point: My girlfriends all tell me how strong I am. I'm an only child, and so I've spent my whole life getting to know me. As a result, I like 'me': I love 'me' too. Anyone who has seriously dug deep enough and spent time looking at who they are will understand what I'm saying. I'm not interested in all the sh** about not showing and nurturing your best assets. We were all born to become the best we can be. WTF is "playing down" your best assests all about? It's all #######4 if you ask me. Why does society train people into believing that they shouldn't sell themselves honestly enough. No one knows you better than you, and unless you tell people who you are, don't expect to cash in on its fortunes.

We're all told to sell yourself when it comes to getting a job, but you're supposed to downplay, even tell people you're not great when it comes to personal happiness? What the hell is that about?


I do get your point scarecrow. I thought about your post on the bus coming back from work. If someone said to me, go and bundy jump, I'd run a mile.

Life is full of so much pain and sadness, yet I'm lucky enough to be living in a first world country, and only a quarter of the world's population have that fortune. I'm one who appreciates what I have, always noticing life's inanimate delicacies that most people wouldn't give a second thought about. I love emotional ink that runs through life's cracks, yet most seek to bury it. Emotion is life's greatest hidden treasure, yet so many treat it like frozen liquorice. What was the point of this post?
O.K I'm going on a tangent, so I'll stop, but I'm hoping you get my gist.
