Insecurity Can Destroy.

All of us have felt insecurity at one point in our life or another, and that's normal. But to let it run our life and to let it rule every aspect of our existence - now that's another story.

Insecurity can do a lot of things, many of them bad - especially when not handled well. It can make a person defensive. It can make him hateful. It can make him pretentious. And it can also make him untrue to himself, as he evolves into a totally different person while trying to cover up his insecurities.

An insecure person can exaggerate things, thinking that his exaggerations will divert others' attention from his flaw. He is prone to bossing everyone around, because that is his only way to feel that he is worthy and to make him forget about his defect. He can do things that are out of character, all because he tries to create a camouflage.

What many of them do not know is that they're all too transparent. No matter how much they try to put up a facade, their insecurity shows. And, that insecurity is toxic and harmful. It can destroy all the good things they already have.
