being yourself

Our Character is what we do when we think no one is looking - Karl Schonhausen Bismarck

Our character is determined by two aspects. First, the character is about who we are when people are around and looking at us. Second, the character is who we are when there is no one looking at us.

It’s easy to cover a character when people are around. But a true character reveals only when there are no people to look at us.

In simple terms, not all who smile at you are good. Not all who don’t smile at you are bad.

If I can be the same person even when there is no one looking, then that will be my true character. Instead, if I become someone else when people are not looking, then that is my true character. It’s not the one I show before people.

The main reason you and I miss out is by quick judgments we make. People who seem to be so tough with others on the outside could be a real genuine person. The one who has a sweet tongue can be the bad one. The attention-seeking ones will behave differently and don’t mean they are bad. The silent ones stay away and don’t mean they are good.

Character is exciting and a mysterious phenomenon.

People will either show who they really are or they show what they want other people to see. There is good for it and bad to it.

The conclusion here is:

Be good. Keep your Morales. Be the same and be yourself even if people are not looking at you.
