Our Self-Esteemed is tied in with everything

How easily are people swayed? Even people who are intelligent, open-minded, and think for themselves? Even people who think of themselves as ones who go against the crowd?

The real question is, how much does someone trust in themself...or how much is someone entirely confident in themselves and know themselves well enough that they won't be swayed to find or feel like something is wrong with their bodies when they were fine with it before....

What I'm trying to get at is...say you like yourself. Say you think your body isn't perfect but you're ok with it...or you like it anyway. Now say someone so confident in themself is able to critique you or point something out...it gets you thinking about yourself...everyone wants acceptance, no matter how radical you are.

The real question is, will you let yourself start to critique your own body or personality unneccesarily because of someone else?

Will you start to feel worse than you have before about other candidates or the state of our nation because a charismatic politician says so and makes you believe in so?

Something to ponder.
