We Are All Insecure

by Lee on September 6, 2009

“Never compare your inside with somebody else’s outside.”
— Hugh Macleod

Be careful whom you admire or despise. For as much as you think you know, you do not know all about any individual. How they appear on the outside seldom reveals their true nature and everyone struggles with insecurity. Take time then to watch and listen to what people do and say, but observe mostly what they do, for it is in what people choose to do that reveals who they really are.
