Shedding

I am amazed at people’s capacity to be insecure. I am no exemption, I must admit, but heck, I didn’t imagine that other people, especially men, could have bigger issues than me.

I also realized just recently that boys, just like women, like attention. They feed off of it. They couldn’t live without it; without someone to send text messages to, without someone to flirt with. It drives me mad.

But while I was doing my devotions this morning, I think finally understood. We all desire unfailing love. The tough guy, the weakling, the diva, the rockstar, the nerd, the addict, the movie star, the movie goer – everyone, whether they admit it or not, everyone is looking for unfailing love.

I found it; an unfailing love that would not change no matter what. So I’m slowly shedding away my insecurities. But the process is painful. It is a mind over matter thing, I guess.

On a final note; Though it is understandable and highly normal that men have insecurities as much as women do, please do not be so obvious about it. It makes you look weak.
