this has been bugging me for quite some time, it's become a pet peeve.
i really find humility in people quite respectable. sobrang naa-admire ko yung mga taong tahimik lang at hindi conscious sa kanilang self-image. conversely, natu-turn off ako sa mga taong pasikat, those who blow their own horns one too many times, in way too many different ways. it's none of my business, i know, but personally it turns me off. di naman siguro kelangang maging high-profile o image-conscious o pasikat para umunlad ang buhay. para makuha ang gusto. para makuha ang respeto ng mga tao. there are people who can bite but chose not to bark, and they have my respect, not only for what they've done but also for their humility, in spite of what they've done. i have friends like these, at kahit hindi nila alam, sobrang taas ng paghanga ko sa down-to-earthness at pagka-low profile nila. sobrang taas ng pagtingin ko sa kanila for their brilliance and humility combined.
okay. gonna be a long day, prolly. HAY.
