Sometimes it feels like I'm surrounded by people with huge ego's, and huge personalities. They put themselves forward, act with confidence, promote themselves and their abilities. I'm not like that. I don't want to be like that. But sometimes it feels like I'm invisible, hidden by the loud, brash voices around me.

I don't see why I should have to talk about what I can do when I have already explained it. I don't feel like I have to prove anything. I know what I can do, put me on the job, and my abilities will speak for themselves. Talk is cheap and bullshit walks.

So then why do I let myself feel insecure and cowed compared to the big talkers. I have my quiet dignity. I have my inner knowledge, why should I have to hang it on my sleeve?

I don't need to be like them, I don't like their big, bold attitudes. I like honesty, and being down to earth, I dislike show-offs. Why should I have to adopt their brassiness to prove what I can do? I won't do it. I'm keeping it real, that's the way I am, that's the way I choose to be.
