Facebook Quizzasses?
These quizzes.
"Are you a good judge?",
"Do you have a good heart?"
"What's your calling?" ...
And the questions...
"what kind of pizza do you prefer?",
"are you nice?",
"do you like cheese?"
It's disturbing to me that these quizzes are being used to reassure ourselves or others as to who we are.
Don't get me wrong, while interesting to take they are fantasy at best. Just like these words, right here and now, a mere story.
See, words and illusion are far more appealing to the individual these days than "be, do, have". Largely material based, and "want" based, they are quite possibly tests designed for no other reason than to collect consumer data.
The time we spend with one another one on one, interacting, relating, is far more evidenctiary than any "test" could be as to who we are. Then what some random quizz 30 states and people from here could ever say about we are.
Dear souls taking these to figure out for themselves or prove to others the substance of their character, I ask of you to venture a little bit deeper than that. Success. It can be said it is measured by our efforts, perseverance, and investments into shaping our character. This isn't an easy task, however this is the work of life. No part of a persons soul can be defined by their preference for cheeses or holidays.
What have any of us got to prove to anyone? Character is the furthest thing from reputation. Character is who you are, reputation what others think you are. If there are any on your path who do not see you for you, encounter and love the truth of you in your eyes, then they are not souls meant to relate with yours. Period.
What is the criteria for accurate results? Questions are leading, that is, one will choose what they feel is accurate, not necessarily what IS accurate.
Expose a little more of your raw self. A little more of of your perfect imperfection. You never know who is going to love you and indulge in your being, the good and the raw. What seems to be key is being willing to love yourself, through and through, layers and layers of a beautiful fruit. Nurture the fruit, starting at the roots. There's really nothing to protest or prove. Everything changes, starting with you
