A friend just told me that from childhood they were told that they were the best and hence there could never be any doubt in their minds about their self worth and any insecurities...

is that the best way to bring up a child? I am all for self confidence boosting efforts but to make your child believe that they are always right? is that bordering on arrogance??

In a way I guess it is better than being plagued with doubts about yourself.... and wondering whether the other people know more than you.... 

Sometimes you should just accept good enough as being the best.... life is that strange...

Didnt realise that some inalienable truths in life actually were not truths... that there are beliefs that need to be changed... and there are attitudes that need to be changed based on what the circumstances are.....

Am searching for that 16 year old girl who set out to carve out a life for herself in the world... who thot that she would conquer all challenges and move all mountains... who never let the world make her believe that she was secondary to anyone... who marched on... irrespective of the jibes that came her way... who wanted to scale new heights... who never thot gender would be an issue..

where has that girl disappeared?? who killed her?
