Braggers...

Tell me what you brag about and I'll tell you what you lack...

Today as Arvid and I were enjoying a nice and relaxing lunch, in walked in a group of people talking loudly each trying to speak above of the other.  Right there and then I could tell by the look on Arvid's face that our relaxed time was soon to be ruined.

The group sat not far from us and like many people they were not very quiet. Let's just say we heard more than we wanted to.  Each was trying to better what the other was saying.  In the beginning I thought it was funny, but after a while it just got boring.  At the same time it also reminded me of some people we know who are constantly bragging about how they know so and so, they have this and that...you get an idea of what I mean.

I know we all brag at times about things, but we don't make it a point to do so constantly just to impress others.  It is not part of our daily lives.  Why do people brag?  Do they think they are impressing anyone?  For sure I can say I am not impressed.  I just look at them and think of something else. 

I believe many brag because they are insecure of themselves, they feel that by trying to "impress" others it makes them look much bigger than life.  I look at them and I see "LOSER"  Please don't try to impress me with who you know..I DON'T CARE!  Don't try to impress me with what you have..I DON'T CARE. 

He who is humble is confident and wise. He who brags is insecure and lacking....

until next time....
