I had received a compliment that I love. Who doesn’t like pretty words that portray them? As usual, words spill and hide. They make and break but they love, all in all. A lot of us have been brought up, thinking, “we don’t have to care about what other people say”. We shouldn’t, actually. But then there’s me who doesn’t exactly like compliments.
No. I don’t hate compliments. I just think they’re mostly lies because in reality, you can never see how a person actually feels about you. As a naturally curious person, I’ve always wondered how that’d feel like. “Wouldn’t it be nice to read someone’s thoughts ?”. It wouldn’t be hard to make relationships in love and friendships, would it?
I smile in return when I hear or receive a compliment and I then check. Is it me being self conscious or am I crazy? Because truly, I’m beauty. We all are
It’s not a new feeling, it’s not harsh. It’s so subtle, you’d barely notice but I need you to tell me “how do you stay beautiful and feel beautiful ?”
For every time I feel this way, I let a tear go. For myself, my younger self who thought it’d get better in the future. Also for my future self. Would she smile and say “your Insecurities weren’t worth it ?” or would I be right as usual ?
