I feel that these days, people are always constantly trying to achieve things to make others look up to them, make them "proud". Do I really have to prove myself for people to appreciate me for who I am? do I really need to do stand out just so people can use me as a way to show off? Do I have to be important for me to have made a difference in peoples lives?
Why can't people just accept each of the people in their lives who work hard doing something they enjoy and be proud of them?
Sometimes, I feel I try so hard, and all I get is the repetition of how great someone else is being rubbed in my face. Just because that person is more talented then me, or he started this interest of before I did, doesn't mean I can't be good at what I'm doing.
Maybe, I'll never become as good as these other individuals, but why do you make it seem like it's always a dog fight, and I am your dog who loses every fight, even though he's working his hardest, even though he's carrying all the battle scars and he's still fighting, you never see how great he is and how hard he's trying.
Unfortunately, this is just what you gotta put up with to thrive in society.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of what's been said/implemented to you.. I hope it doesn't affect your current goals in life etc.
And I'd like to say.. I was proud to see you on stage last night, giving it all you got. It's been a while since I last saw you dance and it's great to see how well you're doing.
