FREEDOM FROM WHAT OTHERS THINK

"Our thoughts are unseen hands shaping the people we meet. Whatever we truly think them to be, that's what they'll become for us."
~ Richard Cowper ~

I have spent so much of my life caring about and fretting over what other people think of me, without having any real ability to change what they think. There's freedom in recognizing that it doesn't really matter, or mean anything, or have to affect the way I am. Judgment is so personally skewed that it lacks veracity. What matters most is our level of integrity and who we know ourselves to be.

I am free of the sea of opinions.
