She is trying to become a better person....
I was having a discussion with a friend who was lamenting over the trials of another. I was half listening because I don’t feel comfortable hearing second hand personal information, better known as gossip. Then one sentence struck me. He said, “She is trying to become a better person”. I couldn’t shake it. All I could think about from that point on is why would someone want to become someone different? In order to become a better person then you must feel that the person you are right now is not good enough. I became sad inside for this lady. I now felt as if I had looked into her soul and found an empty place. I was hoping that he had gotten it wrong, but I knew he didn’t. There are so many people out there that are trying to deny who they are to become something that will please someone else. I wanted to reach out to her but I’ve only met her in passing and am not close enough to her to be so intimate.
I figured since I couldn’t share with her I would share with you. Be yourself! Become a more genuine expression of who you are. You are perfect just the way you are. The only improvement you need to make is to stop hiding who you are and stand proud. Please don’t try to be better. Just be. If you are generous, be generous. If you are energetic, be energetic. If you are sexy, be sexy. If you are tired, be tired. Just be real, there is no better. You cannot be a better person. You can only pretend to be what you think is better than you, and that doesn’t say much for who you believe yourself to be.
