Approval
I love the way that I was made, but if there was one thing I could change about myself that feels impossible to do is to live life for myself. I hate being a certain person to try and receive someones approval. Everyone at some point has been a victim of craving acceptance, whether they realize it or not. Maybe it's even safe to say that people desire this everyday. It could be either parents, or authority figures, or even a friend or boyfriend/girlfriend. I've come to conclusion there is one person in particular that I wish I could just gain full approval of. At times I think, " Oh, she knows your pretty.. and Oh she knows you're a great person," but I can never gain a full percent. It would be so much easier if this person wasn't myself. I am my worse enemy.

Yes, sometimes especially teenagers try to gain the approval of their loved ones in a positive or negative way. In a positive way is when their parents become their role model at a very early stage in life. This way they are motivated to do better in life. In a negative way is when they want to gain the approval of a girlfriend/boyfriend. The sometimes ruin their lives trying to follow a wrong path without any guide.
You know it's funny that you mentioned that because I have always heard that, "you are your worst enemy." A person does not have an enemy other than himself/herself. That's a very interesting dilemma.
Tell me about it!
Amen!
Love You Carrot Girl =)
