Being a self aware person doesn't mean i view myself as a good person. i think a lot of people get that confused. it literally means that i am vigilant of both my light and dark side. i have also made peace with my flaws even though i'm always working through them.
The downside of people viewing you as someone strong & resilient is them thinking that nothing hurts your feelings.
I want others to be gentle with me the way I’m gentle with them.
