I would like to be able to develop my own self-respect without treating the people around me as less than they are. It's been a difficult tightrope to walk.
i think those with the most self-esteem feel the least need to treat others badly. it is the insecure among us who need to belittle others so that they may feel great in comparison. xo
Well, in my case I think I tend to neglect my own emotional well-being because I'm too worried about what people think of me. As that goes away, I find that I give less and less of a damn about what's going on in everyone else's life. I have not been a joy at my mother's social gatherings of late because I really don't give a flying fuck about what her friends do. I just wanna sit in my room and practice.
