People who say they know everything about a person perpetuate boredom. You can never know everything about any one person just like you can't know everything there is to know about yourself. Knowing yourself is a never-ending process. Every single human person is unpredictable (+1,000 different and awesome adjectives).
People who say they know everything about any given person perpetuate boredom because, in the end of the day, you are not thinking of other people as so incapable of differentiation of character but you are rather thinking of yourself as boring and, damnit you just aren't. Give yourself more credit. As Whitman says, "Do I contradict myself? Very well then, I contradict myself. I am large. I contain multitudes." You also contain multitudes. Own it. You are not just one thing. You contain at least 4 different versions of yourself but, more likely, you contain 4 billion. boom.
What I am writing here (and throughout the blog) isn't self-help bullshit. This is just true. Our actions and words all come back to what we think of ourselves.
What do you think of yourself & how do you project it on other people?
