live with myself

"They're certainly entitled to think that, and they're entitled to full respect for their opinions... but before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience."
- Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

the qoute is from the novel im reading now.. its a conversation of a father and his daughter,, the father explained to his kid that why he did something that makes he and his family seen as a low and wrong person. what this man do is a courageous act.

me most of the times see myself as a bad person or a loser.. and sumtimes i feel everyone around me doesnt like me. so a lot of times i put so much effort to make people loves me. after years, im getting tired of trying since it didnt make people love me more..

i came to realise,, just like the above quotes, before we expect people to be comfortable with us, we gotta learn to live with ourself. and the only way i know is to appreciate myself as a one unique and beautiful person my Lord Jesus Christ has been created. Since He never meant to create something bad,, i believe me myself is not an exception. I believe He has a beautiful work inside of me, it just waited for the perfect time to shine out. i just have to be patient, keeping my faith and always be thankful of what i am now as God wants it to be.. Thank u my Lord.. I love you....
