Do I know myself? Am I whom I think I am? Is my perception of myself determined by others perception of me? Do I try to meet up with the standards others have set? Am I quiet because I know someone quiet I admire or because it's my nature? Am I quiet because I think people will like me more if I'm quiet? What's my definition of Christianity? Is it another man's lifestyle? What if I see Bro XYZ wear a chain? Will that change my opinion on it?
One of the greatest problems of the youth is self discovery and self acceptance. Know yourself. You are an original. Be you. If you think closely, there are NO TWO PEOPLE you view the same way so stop thinking people see you the same way they see ABC. By the way, why bother yourself about how people see you?
You need to define yourself, your personality, your life. You need to know who you are and stop looking elsewhere for a definition of yourself. I need to know me and love me.
You are good and wonderful just the way you are. The only model is Jesus. Stop looking to others for a definition of yourself. You are good.
You have a destiny to fulfil. You won't fulfil it trying to be like somebody else.
