Fail

I'm eating my lunch, and I look over at the scarf I wore to school today. It still had the tags on... =_=

Not the first time I've done something like this, by the way. I've worn T shirts that still had the size stickers stuck on the torso part of the shirt. And I only discovered it AFTER I got home from school, haha... But this was the first time I've worn something with dangling tags still attached >_<

I used to be very self conscious about myself, always afraid of doing something embarrassing since I'm a bit clumsy. Recently, I've developed thicker skin and learnt to let some things (like the scarf incident today) go. I find that it's much easier to live without constantly worrying about what other people think of me. I'm much happier.

I think we tend to worry about our self image because other people judge us. Of course, we judge others too, whether we admit it to ourselves or not. However, it's impossible to understand the foundation of an individual without getting to know them, empathizing, and communicating with them. Of course, it goes the other way around too. In my opinion, everything in life is a two-way street.

I'm prone to make snap judgments just like everyone else, but I've started reminding myself that that's not all there is to a person. The next time you make a judgment about someone, maybe you can remind yourself too. Or the next time you feel self conscious about something, remember that that's not all there is to you.
