Howdy Freewriters馃! Welcome to my 5 Minute Freewrite blog馃槉.
I bet we can all agree that everyone brags. Sometimes we don't even realize we're doing it. Especially when it comes to our personalities and qualities, it slips out naturally. It's subtle, woven into the very things that make us unique. We pass it opff as socializing: "I do karaoke, I play the guitar, I like, I do..." Small brags, disguised as qualities.
Bragging isn't just for the affluent. It's not always about flashing possessions; those are direct brags, the kind that can spark jealousy and envy. The subtle ones, though, have different power. They tend to bring people together. Like birds of a feather flocking together, the little brags tucked in our daily conversations draw us closer to the people who reflect us back, where personalities align and qualities compliment one another.
A world without brags would be dull, empty. What would be the point of discovery if I couldn't simply say, "I'm good at karaoke"?
So, don't feel discouraged when you feel like shouting to the world, "I'm good at this." It's your moment to shine; so brag about it, as long as it doesn't dim someone else's light. You know, the concious yet innocent kind, like a child proudly showing the world their treasure; pure, joyful, and unentitled. These moments pass quicker than we intend.
Thank you for reading鉂わ笍.
