i live in a world full of “I”-s. each and everyone of those i know is self-centred, at least at a certain level. but what really made me think was the over-estimated opinion some may have regarding their personality. you see, some of my classmates tend to think of me as being that nerd that has a passion for studying and pleasing teachers. they’re better than me in so many ways, i cannot even count them. and the first issue is that they do have this weird characteristic i keep mentioning, while i don’t. but here comes the funniest part: how come i see it completely in reverse?
i notice them wondering around, in groups. they smoke together, they talk dirty together, act cool and jerk others around together. yet, i’ve never seen any of them acting like this on their own. even more, try asking one of them why he/she is the way they are. they’ll just say “it’s the trend, it’s how these things work.” . on the other side of the hand, i’ve never had a problem with being the freakthat reads and learns. i enjoy finding out new stuff every day, and i enjoy passing it over to my subconscious in order to be stored. i never thought it’s anyone’s problem but mine the way i choose to be, without discussing right now whether it’s the right way or not.
and now i come to ask. who is it who lacks personality. yes, they do have nerve, they ignore other’s opinions,but only if you don’t separate them- is that what personality is really about?
