How do I have a struggle with the reality of people thinking of what they think and their views?
I just made a point about not to worry about others thoughts . So being that I know of not to worry of these people of course I know they exist.
It seems to me that you can't solidly identify yourself in reference to that simple question because of others. You can't have your own judgment of yourself because of others.
I don't know where you picked up that mindset from but the news flash reality you must take in is knowing yourself, know how to rate your own self. See your strengths , weaknesses, talents, flaws. Got nothing to do with trying to get somebody else's two cents.
This way when faced with a question "are you a good person?"
You can answer confidently, firmly with a yes or no without the convoluted "well he thinks " or "she would think" or "it depends on the world".
You know yourself.
