Have you ever felt that you found your own self but still you wanted to be the person that other people known?
There was a time that I become curious about myself because maybe I change and became like the other girls that people know, change to be someone that I found that I could be someday or change to be someone who I am not.
In all the things that I taught about, another thing that I think is that what would I choose to be unique and different or to be like other people known. I take time on thing this while I'm studying in my room or I'm listening to music. After days or week, I already made my mind that I wanted to be different person or to be someone who unique and not like other people. I wanted to be who I am today.
How about you? I wanted to know your opinion on this discussion and I wanted to hear if you ever tried to think about this thing in your life.

Well, there were times before that I tried to change myself and my interests just to fit in to a certain group. It's like somewhat peer pressure plus longing to belong. But as I age, I realized that it is not me. And if I'm having my own set of friends, I'm having them not because I changed myself just to fit in. But because they love me for what I really am.
Now, my own style, my own music, my own taste of food, my own perspective is all purely me. I don't need to jive to what other people want or to what our society dictates. :)

I heard a speech today and that makes me think a lot. While life is about how you think yourself and set up your own goal. The most perfect one for you is important. So i'm gonna make my life colorful and have fun coz we really can't follow other people's treat. Do not upset and relax yourself. And enjoy your own lifestyle. The thing is that we have to find out who we are. Good luck on you, dear mylotter.

yes sometimes we are more influenced by others and want to be like them we may not like anything about ourselves, we admire others and feel they are good in every aspect. But is it true ,that we are not good as them, why should we change? i never got the answer. I thought about it many times but finally i decided , i am like me, they are like them. everyone is unique.

What's wrong with being yourself? Why pretend to be somebody who you are not? Why behave like you think it's more appreciated by others? If people respect you for being who you'r not, that respect means nothing as well.

I have changed a lot since I got married. I was the quiet type and rarely would go out and associate with people. But being married with a personality that is exactly my opposite, well, I have learned to come out of my shell. It helped a lot when I started working in the pharmacy and I had to deal with different kinds of people everyday.
Now, after 17 years of marriage, I would still want to change a bit. But nothing like wanting to be some other person to look identical with but rather I want to improve in how I see life and not to worry too much about the future.

Yes, like you do, I did that also before for my own progress in attitude. I mean, I'll gonna change for the sake of others. I will not act as if I am the mirror of others. I want to be unique. I want to change my bad attitudes and habits. I just did and it work out well. I am maintaining that changes until now.
