How to act
Have you ever watched a movie or a tv show and thought to yourself "wow, that person is just like me, maybe that's how I should act" or "everybody in these shows deals with relationships and other things in life in similar ways to each other, maybe that's how I'm supposed to act." Well, maybe you haven't, but I have. In the search for figuring who I am and who I want to be, I would always look to cues about who I was or how I should act. TV and movies are just one example, I would also just watch other people who I interacted with to get ideas from them as well.
Well, I've decided that I have had enough of it, and that I am no longer going to take cues from outside of myself. I am going to start acting and making decisions based completely on what I feel like is the appropriate thing to do. I am 25 years old, I have had plenty of time to learn from others and develop ideas about what my options are, what makes me happy, and what kind of person I would like to be. It's about time I started to make these decisions for myself.
