Do you walk with your head held high or do you look down to the ground?

Sometimes i find myself walking with my head hanging down but i am quick to lift it when i realize. It's not a good look when you see someone walking along with their head hanging down.

I always looked down to the ground when im walking in the streets especially when im alone. I don't know why but i'm always like that. Its just that i am not comfortable seeing people staring at me while i am walking. I feel shy and conscious. :0 Sometimes i do try myself not to look down but most of the times i'm always looking down at the ground. :)

I find myself doing it sometimes, i think it's a lack of self-confidence. I usually never say hello, nor give eye contact to people passing by neither. I am trying to change though, because i believe it's a good thing to greet strangers (people who look sane enough, lol).

LOL. Same here,definitely im lack of confidence. No matter how i tried still its the same. Hehehehe...Im used to it and its already a habit for me and they its not easily changed. Though sometimes when im aware that i am already staring at the ground i tend to raise my heads up and boast for that moment. Feeling proud and confident!LOL

Lo, when I was a child I always looked at the ground when I walked. My Dad would always say "if you find gold, let me know", it was a reminder always to stand straight and hold my head up. To this day if I find myself looking down I hear those words in my head and laugh!

I used to walk with my head down as if I was always looking for a lost coin. One day I saw myself in someone else and I realized how unsightly it was. Instantly, I changed myself and started to walk head high. Even when I'm sitting I always try to maintain a level chin. It gives me a good poise and posture. Sometimes though I forget and if I've been staring too long at the ground I feel dizzy or it causes me stiffed-neck LOL!

Hi there, what's been up to lately buddy? Well, yeah i do agree, that those people shouldn't do that kind of thing, as it's seems that they are having such low self steem and not even proud of their selves. They should stand tall and with a head up! Have a nice day ahead and happy posting and earning here in MyLot. Godspeed, Kiko
