Leaving the house that morning was not easy for her, she kept checking and checking herself in the mirror. Something was wrong with her outfit and she knew it but she really wanted something new or different from her regular outfits!
"These clothes are not so bad I guess but why do I feel so wired" she muttered! Though she was not comfortable in the clothes nevertheless she wore them at least let her wear something they have not known her with in her place of work!
As she walked down the road, she kept feeling bad and offended by everyone smiling or any two persons giggling because they seemed to be laughing at her even when no one actually noticed her.
She just felt she was the reason people were looking at and laughing! She was already not comfortable with herself when she left the house but on her way to work, she felt so awkward and wished she could disappear...
I guess you might have had a similar experience! But why do I have to share this story this morning?
To remind you that how you see yourself and what you feel about yourself matters a lot!
If you are not comfortable with the person you are, you will obviously think everyone is not comfortable with you too! You will always find fault in how people relate with you even when they behave or act normal.
Because you esteem yourself lowly, you feel everyone wants to take advantage of you! When a person sincerely appreciates you, you see it as mockery because you don't think you are good enough!
Meanwhile, I have also seen persons whose outfits were nothing to write home about but their charisma sent a different message across, I mean the guy looks unkept not actually because he is dirty but his clothes are just too poor, old and archaic.
But with his attitude we said that he is just being funny, he does not really care meanwhile he does just that maybe he could not afford something better but because he refused to be dispirited we saw him in a different light!
That is exactly what self-esteem can do, carry yourself with dignity no matter your limitations, let it be that your love for yourself supersedes whatever is happening around you!
Stop feeling bad because you think people think less of you, they only call you by the name you call yourself!
So, if you present yourself to them as weak, poor, naive, foolish etc they simply see you that way. What I'm I trying to say? People will call you the name you choose to answer which means the problem is not without but within!
You are the problem and not people! Get the right mindset about your personality, come to terms with your weaknesses and learn to love and respect yourself in spite of your shortcomings!
Value and express the good in you and it will overshadow the negative, after all, no one is entirely good! Always remember that people see you through your own eyes so, see the good in you and appreciate yourself!
It is difficult to love a person who lacks self love! In fact, loving them is a crime because they see everything wrong in you loving them!
I hope people don't find it difficult to love you, do have a blessed day!
