We all have dealt with different kinds of insecurities at some point in our lives.
As easy it is to use the words confidence, happiness and being comfortable in your own skin, it’s as hard to actually apply it in our day to day lives and how we actually feel about ourselves.
With the lives we live in today, where social media and the judgement of others has become the epicentre of everything we see, feel and hear it also influences our perception that we hold for ourselves.
This without a doubt can affects our self esteem, mental health and the value we hold for everyone around us, including ourselves.
When it comes to insecurities there are all kinds. Some people wish they were more confident, more valued or loved, much more smarter than what they are, not so introverted and many people wish they were more beautiful, always seeking for external validation.
Is all of this wrong, is the question I ask myself and everyone reading this. Why has society propelled us to think that we have to craft this perfect image to be a ‘people pleaser’ and always look out for the judgement of others to tell us how capable we are or not, or base our self esteem on how others perceive our personality and values, truly forgetting where our real happiness lies.
Many of us deal with this issue almost everyday which leads to insecurities in our lives and in the bargain we truly forget the meaning to live your life on your own terms with kindness, love and empathy .
Another question that arises in my mind is that is it okay to live with insecurities and what is the true meaning of being confident and comfortable in your skin.
In my opinion, I believe that you can be a radiant, happy and positive person, as we try to fit in our planned out and almost in-sync lives , but the foremost thing to remember is to be secure within your own insecurities.
Eventually, confidence consists of one attribute and that is knowing and loving yourself for who you are.
We all must have heard that this is something that can change our lives, but what we fail to understand is the true meaning of it. Don’t let others say having insecurities makes you less confident, it makes you more human.
Amidst all of this, it’s finding where your happiness lies, when your value isn’t based on other people’s opinions and where you live a life truly being who you are and persist to change yourself for the better, not for the worst and truly find you inner happiness along your path.
To conclude all I can say is, security, confidence and happiness does not lie in outward appearances or in vanity, it is a matter of what we feel inside, it is a deep resonance within our own lives.
Hence, it’s so important to be secure within your own insecurities.
