Gold in Cracks

[cheetra]

Keeping a secret for one's benefit is not being ashamed of it, but rather being worldly wise.

We may say we do not care about what the world thinks; sure, you can say that when there is no goal.

Let's be practical: if you are a business owner and a person who has had heart surgery comes to you and asks for a job, and at the same time you have another candidate who is equally capable as him, who would you hire?

People dye their hair many times to avoid the judgment of being called old.

We are not conscious, logical beings most of the time; we make subconscious, illogical judgments 90% of the time.

It is true that society judges, and sometimes hiding our scars is just a practical way to survive. I completely agree with you. We can hide our past to protect our peace in the real world, as long as our own hearts remain completely free of shame.

Absolutely. Self loathing is our worst enemy.
Love thyself is the motto.

My motto is exactly the same. Since nobody is loving me right now, I had to learn to do it myself. Unless someone wants to prove me wrong?
