Hello QC Community ‼️
I am back here to the given topic for this week. I am interested in participating even though I am a little busy. But I feel like I need to take a break and write on this platform so that I can ease my thoughts and stabilize my mental state.
The topic for this week is as follows:
Know Yourself - Use 5 words to describe yourself and write why you chose them.
I chose 5 words that, for me, represent myself. This is not a self-assessment, but rather words that my friends have given me about myself: charming, kind, stubborn, fair, and strong.
Charming
I really enjoy making friends. For me, I have friends all over my country, Malaysia, and even outside the country, regardless of age, race, or religion. I am very happy to be friends with anyone, and that's definitely a bonus for me. Many people enjoy being friends with me, even if we are far apart. My friends will surely remember me and my name, even though sometimes I myself don't remember where I met them.
Kind
I value kindness very much. I think it's important to treat people, the environment, and animals with kindness. I really think that good things come in return for good deeds. As long as I am able, I also like assisting those in need—sometimes even putting their needs ahead of my own.
Stubborn
While some may view stubbornness as a negative quality, I think it may be a good quality. Why? Because in this manner, if I decide something is inappropriate for the circumstances, nobody else can decide it for me. Even if I have a few critics, I have to stand by the choices I make. However, if that's the best course of action for me, nobody can question it.
Fair
I live by the theory of fairness. I think it's important to treat everyone equally, no matter who they are. Acting justly is necessary to prevent treating certain people unfairly. In my opinion, even if someone is one of my close friends and they are wrong, they are still wrong. This keeps us out of trouble when we do this but sometimes the others may not agree with my decision.
Strong
I am strong, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. Even though sometimes I broke down to pieces and went through it all, I made it. I have experienced the ups and downs of life. I have faced difficulties, felt alone, dealt with the consecutive deaths of loved ones, been abandoned by loved ones, and have faced many challenges throughout my 44 years of life. And now, I have to take care of my sick mother and my unwell brother. I have to stay positive and focused even in tough times.
The topic for this week is "Know Yourself," which is interesting to look into. Self-awareness and reflection are lifelong processes that help me understand who I am. Understanding my values, beliefs, and flaws is important since they help define who I am and how I make decisions.
In the end, in order for us to grow, we must be aware of who we are and know ourselves. Accept all of our good qualities so that we can develop into valuable people, and let go of our bad qualities to keep our mental health intact. I am thankful for the topic for this week and all of the readers who have read my thoughts. I hope for all the happiness in your life all the time.
