realization…. after 20 years of my life
September 19th, 2009
Must people be all evil in order to survive or get what they want?
Seriously, If you’re passive, quiet, polite and even nice to people you will find that you’ll either get used, mistreated, get pushed around and never get what you want and will feel forever unsatisfied.
Does that mean that being passive, quiet, polite, nice to people are forms of weaknesses? BUT WHY? If everyone are aggressive & ill-mannered towards one another, then wouldn’t the world be so chaotic? (not like the world is not already chaotic anyway.)
I’ve been told countless times that I can’t be weak otherwise people will walk over me. But why do I find that it’s difficult to be aggresive? It’s not that I can’t be aggresive…. I could be if I want to, but it’ll mean that I’ll have to act like a pinkberry and make myself look like a pinkberry so that people would not bother to pick on me or mistreat me to their advantage.
But I can’t force myself to act like somebody who I am not… since it’s like creating an artificial image of myself (or “wearing a mask”) to make myself look tough on the outside.
Also, I like to ‘win people over’ and make them my friends…. not repelling them away from me or make them despise me that they turn into enemies. Seriously, what good does it make if I make people despise me? Even if I choose to be an aggressive, ill-mannered person, I’m afraid that I’ll lose myself as I become that character and can’t ever go back to my old self.
I do not want to conform to the ways of this world, but sometimes it’s inevitable to take up that aggressive character…..
