Facebook Drama - Part Two

Today, I learned about the difference between being arrogant and being humble.  It’s important to be confident and believe in yourself, but it is also important not to be arrogant and offend other people.  I want to use these ideas when I design shirts.  My friend and I were looking at shirts online.  There were so many that were arrogant, saying that people were hot, or the best or just mean shirts like, “3 million people dislike your face”.  People do not want to wear clothes that make them look arrogant.  For example, my friend told me about a shirt someone bought her.  She like math.  The shirt says, “I’m too pretty to do math”.  It is a funny shirt, but she won’t wear it because it’s arrogant.  She doesn’t want people to think  that she thinks she is the best or pretty or anything arrogant.  So, she just wears the shirt around her house and never outside.  I would like my clothes to be worn everywhere. That’s why I’m going to focus on designing shirts that are humble and not arrogant.

 Also, on my Facebook, I might have made posts in the past that may have been arrogant.  I hope all the time that people find me to be pretty and smart.  So, I used to tell them how awesome I was.  I think behavior makes people pretty, like on the inside.  I hope that my behavior helps people to think that I am pretty.  I also hope people think that I am intelligent.  If I see or hear insults, it hurts my feelings.  Sometimes I used to go on Facebook and tell people how pretty and smart I was.  I did that because I wanted them to believe it and not insult me.  But now I realize that I was being arrogant.  I can change the way that I talk to people and hopefully it will make them less mean to me.  I hope that they will start to see me as smart and beautiful because I am confident about myself.  I just will remember to be humble when I talk about myself and let people decide on their own about me.
