"As a woman, you really need to develop a very strong sense of self
and the earlier you can do that, the better!
C.Joybell C.
When we are born into this world, we can usually hear (our very own screaming), and we can soon see images later blessed with sight. So we are perhaps angry and scared, but we can soon hear voices .... except language does not having meaning for us. When our eyes adjust, we understand the people around us by their actions.
If this concept is continued, we in time begin to understand what certain words mean and become aware of the tone in which they are spoken. We become aware of the conflict between actions and words. As our little world expands, we begin to watch the interactions of people when they are together and when they are apart.
If this really is our process, one can readily understand why self-awareness is so difficult to maintain and how easily it is influenced by the actions of others. There really is no sense of self ... or perhaps this element is truly present. What happens to the joy, laughter, and curiosity we are born with? At what point do the inconsistencies confuse us and cause us to doubt our lovely selves?
