It seems to me, we encourage one another to be ourselves because we are beautiful the way we are. But when we start to see the imperfections, we start planning our escape.

So, are we that selfish?

g'morning Am. Yes, got to thinking about how no matter how we care, when we are faced with trials, or personal problems, we consider getting out of it dust-free. It bugs me.

I don't think it's too selfish really. If you meet someone you like at first, but then as time goes on you see more and more about their personality you don't like, you're not obligated to stick around just to be nice. You have a right to be happy too, and that can only happen with a person who has the right character for you. Don't worry about it, just do what's best for you hun. hug

We human and we not perfect scold . We all try not be selfish but its inherent in us. We like to believe we can see past imperfections, but sometimes its easier said then done.
Whether that makes us selfish I'm not so sureconfused . Acknowledgement is the first sign of acceptance. I can be very selfish sometimes yay peace and because im so aware of it, I sometimes tend to be too accomodating, so im in a catch 22uh oh roll eyes . Lifes lessons......

Morning dolls.....when it gets down to it...look after No.1 (yourself)..cause nobody else will. If you don't, then you will not be able to look after others. Yes, people will see that you are fallible. Some people are there only for the ride on your coattails. These are not true friends...which are very hard to come by. I have a couple of friends that I know would come to my aid if needed. I love them for being true friends.teddybear
