Perna stated above "You are only what is You! Nothing outside you is You."
I've come to the realization that the "me" that exists in and of "myself" is not very likable, intelligent or exciting.
Let's say I know of a man named Bob and I don't like him. He doesn't sit right with me. Bob hasn't really done anything big but I just don't like him. Everything Bob does is going to be viewed through this lens. He could solve world hunger and my response would be "meh, he was right I guess(insert sarcastic eye roll)." Well, that's how I feel about myself all of the time. How do you even deal that? Is it ultimately possible to ever truly like yourself when your self concept is that low? Most of the time it's not something I really fight or groan about. Nobody cares as long as you seem agreeable enough on the outside. At this point I question why I should bother changing.
