I'm in this game of tug of war with myself. One moment I want to change the way I act, because I can be better, more gentle, more relaxed and calm but then again, I love the way I am, I love my honesty my quick comebacks, my jokes, my laughs. Even if there are improvements to make I still have to love what makes me, me.

I hope that this applies to other people as well. There's always going to be things we want to fix but still, theres more room to love what we already have than spend so much trying to change.
