In this world, everyone is seeking everyone's approval, appraisal and acceptance.

Like sometimes you ask people about their opinions on matters that you actually have made a decision deep inside. That's the subconcious state of mind searching for people's approval.

Sometimes you start doing things that you really like without much people knowing, and yet you still do it, and while doing it, you actually start promoting it, and speaking about it in very positive attitude, that's trying to gain people's acceptance.

Of course one would say Please lah, like whatever, I just do what I like, dont care la.
And you start showing,telling and sharing your own beliefs and things that very little people do.
That might be in a way showing people that I dont care about what others feel.
But, you are actually still trying to gain people's acceptance, accepting your I-dont-care attitude.
Accepting that not bothering might be the way out, that may seem as you dont really care if people accepts, but actually you are still trying to want people to accept.

That is why we like people to like what we do, and so we try to like what people do.
People wont say out clearly that they actually like people to approve of them, because it seems stupid, like it seems so dependent and childish. But we all seek each other's approval. That's human.

I blog but you don't have to understand.
