So why is it... ..that, like, most people aren't comfortable with themselves, but say everyone else looks fine? Why do we find our flaws instead of other's? If people have a tendency to focus on the negatives, why is it only on ourselves? Just like people who draw and stuff always say "I don't think it's that good.." or "I've done better.." even when it looks really good to someone else.[I'm guilty of that]I guess it's just another thing that doesn't make any sense in the world..Anyone else have some imput on this? confused

	I guess we put ourselves down because we know, personally, that we can do better. Everyone can do better at whatever they do best, and some people strive to do better, knowing that they can. And, people just naturally compliment each other to make one another feel better [Not everyone.]. I, personally, like to tell people the truth. But I'm afraid of what people will think because even though I'm telling the truth, I might be a bit harsh, and that might really hurt someone's feelings. So, I tend to keep my mouth shut, in fear of accidentally hurting someone. I would put more into this and read over it, but it's eleven and I really should be trying to go to bed. xP

	Forever searching... Wow, that makes sense. xP Yeh, I guess it's kind of like a natural reaction? neutral I have a hard time being mean to some people...[more like a certain someone] even though they get on my nerves. I don't like making people angry or sad. ...is all we really are.
