About Me
|
Stuff bout me. thats a tough one, i have always thought that "describe yourself" is one of the most dreaded question that any one can ask me. i have always found it quite difficult to pinpoint what actually goes into making me really "ME". i guess my friends would be more at ease to answer that more than i do coz at time they know me more than i do myself !!! it seems that if u describe ur self to be all goodie goodie then people think that u are too boostful and if u do the opposite then they think that u have low self esteem.
anyway heres what i think of my self to be like i guess i have a gentle, patient, malleable nature. my friends tell me that i have many generous qualities and am friendly, good natured, kind and compassionate, sensitive to the feelings of those around me, and respond with the utmost sympathy and tact to any suffering i encounter.[ Yeah right!! ;) ] but i think i am popular with all kinds of people, partly because my easygoing, affectionate, submissive nature offers no threat or challenge to stronger and more exuberant characters.
I accept the people around me and the circumstances in which i find myself rather than trying to adapt them to suit themselves, and i patiently wait for problems to sort themselves out rather than take the initiative in solving them. i guess i am more readily concerned with the problems of others than with my own.( thats also coz i cant seem to find the solution to my problems with the ease that i do with the probles of others then again thats just me)
my nature sometimes tends to be too otherworldly for the practical purposes of living in this world as it is. I sometimes exist emotionally rather than rationally, instinctively more than intellectually (depending on how they are aspected). I long to be recognized as greatly creative. I also dislike disciple and confinement. The nine-to-five life is not for me, no sir!. Any rebellion i make against convention is personal, however, as often times i do not have the energy or motivation to battle against the Establishment ;) .
I mostly tend to withdraw into a dream world when the going gets too tough. they tell me that i am versatile and intuitive, have quick understanding, observe and listen well, and am receptive to new ideas and atmospheres( thats what my report in the 12th grade repot card was). Even when i cannot express myself creatively I guess i have a greater than average instinct for, and love of, beauty in art and nature, a catlike appreciation of luxury and pleasure, and a yearning for new sensations and travel to remote, exotic places. i guess i should take up to becoming a explorer or a sailor or something.I am never egotistical in their personal relationships and give more than i ask from my friends.
i am a dreamer and love to hear and debate on new ideas. and i love to make new friends. though actually making friends practically is a bit of a problem coz i am kind of shy. i never talk to a stranger unless he/she talks to me first even if he/she (especilaay she ) looks like a very interesting person to be with. but once the ice breaks its all free flowing from there!! i am sure that if u have met me (and more importantly talked to me) then u r my friend already.
then again thats what i think. i may be wrong coz it depends from person to person what they think bout me.
