I’ve heard it said that we do things that support our image of ourself.
Like if I consider myself “loving” then I will act in a way that supports this view. Doing “loving” things.
The only problem I have with this view of self is that it makes it seem like there is really nothing “underneath” our own view of ourselves. I do think we, as humans, are less fluid than that. We get more engrained. We’re born with a general disposition and though it can be tweaked, it’s impossible to change.
That’s not what this post is about though, because on the flip side, I also see that we create the person we want to be.
So.
Me… as a person who likes to think of herself as “loving”…
How do I behave that supports that?
Part of me does not even want to know.
