Useless Comparison

Nothing to Prove

By Ashley LeePublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

Comparing yourself to others is so useless

All it does

Is bring yourself down.

All it does

Is hurting yourself more.

But everyone still compares.

Why?

Because you always have to be better than someone right?

But why?

Why can’t we all be on equal plain fields?

Why can’t we just support each other?

Why do we fake the support and go behind their backs?

Why do we have to get jealous and start comparing?

Because we’re humans.

And humans need confirmation.

We need confirmation that we are good enough.

Good enough for what though?

What is there to prove?

Who are we trying to prove to?
