About Me

To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face. And to know it for what it is. At last to know it, to love it for what it is, and then, to put it away.

I'm done with seeking approval

Seeking approval is so much different from impressing someone.

We can impress anyone in any ways that we like or we can, such as the fastest runner, the biggest eater, the biggest boobs with the slimmest body.

Seeking approval is so much more than that. Approval is to come from someone that you really respect, love or desperately to be coonected with.

Unfortunately, when you need to seek approval, usually it means you are not getting any.

It's really hard to live with disapprovals because there are no start over. You disappointed them once, the disappointment would keep mounting , the past flaws can't be undone, you are losing the long-lost-battle anyway.

Then one day you wake up realizing that you can't take it anymore, you finally find yourself crushed by the pressure of expectations and hopes, or even dreams.

So, today i'm declaring that i'm done with seeking approval. If i can't get it, i can live with it because i can breathe just fine.

Who knows? Maybe it'll your turn to seek my appproval because you've been cut from my life entirely.

Karma rocks.
