SELF DISCOVERY THROUGH CONVERSATION ; WHAT I LEARNED ABOUT MYSELF FROM OTHERS

in Hive Naija2 days ago

What's that one thing you didn't know about yourself till someone told you about it. Whether it's a physical feature or a character trait.

I know very well that I am human, I am not perfect, I am bound to make serious mistakes but I still wasn't sure if I was really making mistakes, I usually think I am good, I don't have any flaws, and all of that...
But one day, I had a conversation with my friends and also people around you....both male and female and I was seriously shocked I was wrong because all this well I was doing that thing because it just the way it is, I didn't see it as a bad character or stuff..

My gee told me you won't know you are wrong, you won't know your character until someone tells you but that doesn't mean anyone should judge me in the process of correcting me.

I will be sharing with us those little character that o wasn't aware.

I WAS TOLD I HAVE A CHARACTER OF A SNUB
To be sincere, I wasn't aware,he told me I am fond of been online without replying or chatting people and it has gotten used to me to the point that if someone even get mind chat with me sef, I go snub the person not minding how the person will feel.....

But seriously, I can tell you I am not a snub, yes I am guilty of it but I didn't see anything wrong with it because to start with I do not like chatting, I prefer calls...
I had to defend myself that I can be online but not active, but it didn't still change the fact that other people complained about the same issues, and I was seriously surprised.... But Sha, I didn't know I was wrong OOO because I saw it as normal thing.

KEEPING MALICE
Just on Monday, before I even saw this post, my friend was telling me that I have a very bad character when it comes to keeping malice, ómór... I can keep malice for a living. If someone should offend me, instead of me going to tell the person that this is what you did I didn't like it, then the person go apologize make peace reign.... But nooooo me, I go put am for my heart and chest d hold am.....

I couldn't stop laughing because it was actually the truth.... Am I guilty?? Yes I am, did I know that I was wrong?? No I didn't know. This is because, I expect the person that offended me to know that he/she has offended me and should apologize even without me telling the person....
The place I thought I was right was because the person offended me, I am angry.... So I didn't see anything wrong with it... Because I have forgiven the person oOoOO .... But na that apology me I d find, but I d Sha work in myself....

A LONER
Seriously, I didn't see anything wrong with being a loner, it's my life, that live makes me happy. But my friends is always telling me that it's a very bad character and personality... I don't talk to people, I don't tell people my problems, always acting very strong outside but fragile inside....

I was told that particular character is eating me up, hence I don't like laughing because there is nothing anyone will do that will make me life... I don't like associating myself with others and doing fun things....
I just want to be alone alone.... Even if I die nobody go know....

Well, I discovered that I took this particular trait from my dad, he is as quiet as Wetin I no Sabi, he doesn't have friends, if he doesn't go to work, he stays at home till dawn and this is also myself and I seriously love it....

But now my people say na bad character, e no good, unto say I be girl.... Ladies and gentlemen, when I started university, I have friends all over half of the 3 campuses and trust me I am leaving that live... since Dem talk say na bad character... I d work on myself to be better.

It's not easy, trust me because I Loved the life I was living, I didn't see anything wrong with my character until I was told.... Seriously, if I wasn't told I wouldn't have known... But now I know I am working towards been better.

Thank you for reading my blog.

Well, if it's the keeping malice part, you can definitely work on being a better you, but if it's being a loner, all the friends you make wont be able to change that if it's your innate characteristic. But at the same time, we're all a work in progress. So as long as you're trying each day to be a better you than yesterday, then it's alright.✨

I love being alone...
My personal space and everything
But my people are telling it doesn't suit me.... I'm trying hard to change....

Thank you for stopping by

Most times, it happens to me that I hardly reply my messages on either Whatsapp or Facebook. The truth is that I'm not snubbing them, but it's just my nature. This is not a problem. Just explain to who it may be concerned that you are not the way they saw you to be.

For the keeping of malice, this is what I don't even like at all. Just work on it so that it can change for good.
