A MOTTO OF THE HUMAN RACE
Let me do what I like, and give me approval as well.

Agreed? Seems like we're always seeking approvals from others... no matter how minute. Do we not? Do we not secretly just want to be liked? Even loved? Simply to have some kind of validation... Something to prove to others and to ourselves.
Like a silly little game we play.

I struggle with this all my life, let my short comings dictate who I am...I rarely let my achievements help mold me. Instead, I focus so much on the mistakes I made.

Agreed.
Is it just human nature to be this insecure or is it learned from a cultural perspective?
