Tid you closet “Gifty” you…..hahahahahahha!!!! I agree, that we all have strengths and frailties….to one degree or another, everybody ALL of US!!! I also agree (experience tells me)….people tend to judge based those strengths and frailties.
Yes… I also agree there are environments where we can …either maintain……excel….and or flounder…..similar to the rest of the world.
Our dilemma may ( and I stress may )stem not so much from what others think or say about us……but more to what we do with that….and in some part may be do to our ability to read or sense those things emanating from said others???? Part of our hyper element often is hyper-awareness and also hyper-sensitivity……and couple with our all too often ODD tendencies….hmmmm???
So Tid maybe….just maybe, if this is all accurate…it behooves us to strive become more comfortable ( it’s not always easy but then neither is the converse)….really comfortable, with who we are and what we are about…… a part of which may be understanding which environment(s) allows us to blossom….shine and be our amazing selves… and which are to be hmmmm… avoided or which we have little mastery of???? These may well be the building blocks to positive self-image, and positive self-esteem….which are the critical elements of personal strength and contentment…….. the path to a life without regret……yes???
After all if “The unexamined life is not worth living.” as Socrates said (at his trial for heresy)……..then maybe we can extrapolate that ……without cure and action, diagnosis is of questionable value????
I’m just sayin’……
