"How others see you is not important. How you see yourself means everything."-Anonymous. I see this quotation on Pinterest and many writing platforms. Are there times when you too have felt like that,deciding on being yourself? I think the picture says it better .The idiom in English "A picture is worth a thousand words" , is so true. I like the image.What do you think ?

The picture reminds me of another picture of a tiny kitten looking at its shadow which resembles a giant lion. Definitely inspiring. :)

It took me a long time to realize this quote. It really doesn't matter what other people think. Criticism or help is always good, but being judged or disliked for who we are, is just lowering ourselves from humanity. It is a very nice quote

Yes but its better to show who you really are, specially to other people more than just pretending. I want to be myself, regardless people dont want me. At least i am true to myself.

@silvermist In way i did. I used Microsoft word on my phone and then played around with the editing on my gallery settings. I kinda made it by accident, but beings that I like blue and green, I stuck with it. It then became the logo for my business.

Yes,we keep postponing what we want trying to please others.But in the end we have not done what we want and as you said no one is satisfied anyway.

I am me and that is all I have to offer. If people don't like me so what. I try to be as positive as I can in life. That is all that I can do.

It's always good to be positive and to love yourself. Even if you don't care about how others see you, your inner positivity will radiate outward and others will enjoy being around you a lot more.
