I am absolutely obsessed with quotes! I feel like, most of the time, they can express how I am feeling better than I can. So I'm starting a weekly column: Quote of the week! Every Sunday I'll put up a quote that I love and want to share! Alright so, my first quote;
"People will love you. People will hate you. and none of it will have anything to do with you."
- Abraham Hicks
I feel this quote so much. If you're so focused on people's opinions of you and let that drive how you act and who you are, you will never genuinely grow as a person. You will never truly know yourself if you're so focused on the image that others have of you. I think people, especially teenagers, are having mini identity crises so often nowadays because they're are getting confused as to who they really are. They're so caught up in appearance and how things will look from an outside perspective that they never take the time to stop and figure who they actually are as a person. This past year, I've made a point to take time and get to know myself, and it's been great. I'm more confident and comfortable with myself than ever before and it's because I have made an effort to stop caring so much about how people perceive me and started to focus more on how I perceive me. That's all that really matters in the end, anyway.
