I have a philosophy in my life Tobani \"This is me, if you do not like what you see it is not my problem it is yours!\" It works for me and most people accept me as to what I am.

I\'ve struggled with this too. Fear is behind it. That hasn\'t stopped me feverishly trying to please myself too, though!

Yes, but at least multiple souls won\'t damn you like they do me: \"Jenny\'s time.\" When I can never seem to be anywhere except apparently on my own schedule, having fifty thousand things to do before I go anywhere. Oh yes, and dragging fifty thousand bags, leather totes and canvas, and Starbucks cold cups by the dozen along with me so they question me. Being your ownself is fun, but a damning proposition. Or so it seems to me; and yet I\'m too happy to be myself. But enough of that. Beautifully rendered with such a winsome poignancy and excellent imagery. Thank you so much for sharing.

So true, my friend! So very true! Individually we are all unique and that is beautiful. When we collectively group together we give up some of that uniqueness for conformity. I, myself, have never been one to conform, even when I\'ve had to comply. Not in my nature. I think people avoid that because, from personal experience, not conforming comes at a social and sometimes even a vocational/financial cost. Still, being ME is priceless as I see it. So, I\'ve paid the cost! 🤣 Ultimately you are right, though, if you constantly live life worrying about what others think and conforming to their standards, you really are existing...not living. I choose LIFE over EXISTENCE. Well done, my friend. 🌹👏

Know oneself, be comfortable with oneself, be oneself is the process I see and this is reflected in this poem of spiritual freedom. Very well stated and nicely written.

Mistrusting and people pleasing are probably the first ailments that beset any infant child. It’s something so hard to cure and shake off, in my opinion. Glad you’ve taken up the topic in poem. 🕊🙏🏻
