The concept of minimizing one's life through getting rid of stuff sounds interesting, but instead of disposing of excess physical things like most minimalists do, I'm applying minimalism to my personality instead that I am working on minimizing my anger and other negative emotions and/or behaviors that don't serve a purpose. I think that I can use minimalism to make myself seem more attractive to others and possibly make new friends with the concept. Some objects are stress relievers for me, so getting rid of tons of things unless they fell apart wouldn't really benefit me.
There was a very special devotional broadcast from Raymond tonight that featured LDS Church President Nelson, Elder Rasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, and their wives that I watched online from my apartment in Lethbridge. I cannot recall who exactly said it, but the concept of becoming sweeter and making yourself more attractive was touched upon. I'm a lot better than I used to be personality-wise, but I still have times where I stumble and those who care about me notice that.
I am collecting ideas on how to minimalize my baddie personality to make myself more appealing to those kind of people who I feel might be good to have in my life. I want to become the type of people I want to attract and I want everyone who comes into my life to feel safe around me. I know those who love and care about me do, but I believe I can widen the parameters of how I can reach out to others. This doesn't mean I will let others bully or corner me into doing things I am uncomfortable doing; it means that I am treating myself as a work in progress and that I believe I am capable of giving and recieving love. It also means that I am also going to work on seeing and thinking myself beautiful in all ways so that others can also think that of me. What do y'all think about that?
