Thinking back about life.
& what is life?

Is life about socializing with friends, making the ones around you happy?
Or is life about appreciating the little moments in your life.. even if its just some alone time yourself?
Reading a book, staring into space, watching your favorite drama series, crowd watching or even just sipping on a cup of mocha, leaving foam on your upper lips?

We all have different definitions of life.
But have we ever tried putting ourselves into the shoes of the others, and truly think in the way that they do?
Perhaps some do, and some don't.
Nevertheless, we can't deny the fact that we can't be a 100% of the others.
Even if we could be of the same similarity, there would be that 0.000000001% in between.
And that's what makes us all unique individuals.

& the theory comes.
Why do we judge, scrutinize and criticize someone else's life?
When one starts, and the other begins. and it keeps ongoing.
And there are some times, that we feel like we ain't ourselves.
We are unknowingly controlled by someone's perspectives of us, we are afraid of comments.
We get eaten by our fear of comments.

But why do we have to succumb to them?
Do they know how we like how our life to be?
Will they ever appreciate if we explained it to them, or would they just define life as the way they define their life?

Life, is about happiness, smiles, sorrows, and being true to ourselves.
Life, is not about negative comments, wary eyes of the others and the fear of being laughed at.
If we fear, our confidence is technically slashed by fifty-percent.
If we smiled, we might boost our confidence, even if its a five percent increase.

Forget others, think about yourself.
That's when you shine the brightest, so much brighter than the others who wrap themselves in blankets of criticism and judgemental looks at the others.
& let them be.
For they will never be the same individual as you.
