Boasting About Yourself

I’ve noticed that you talk about the things you do well I listen as you boast of your ability and skill, I can sense the pride and happiness it makes you feel I’m aware if you don’t say it nobody else will If you have to talk of these things when nobody has your skills are unimportant or they’re skills you do not have as blowing your own trumpet is a very desperate act you must crave attention or acceptance you ain’t had You do things the other people never choose to do the skill that you require isn’t something we value believing it is needed as the only path in view and none of us have mastered this survival skill like you You believe there’s always one correct option for all and while you always pick that option others look a fool when they all pick a different option they ain’t on the ball as there brain ain’t like your brain, big while there’s is small So you’re the only one placing value in your skill and if you never talk about it nobody else will the feeling that you’re better is a feeling very real there’s nothing else inside as this belief is all you feel You never do anything that others see as good they do things the hard way and you don’t think you should so they do things the wrong way always misunderstood unaware that you do things hoe others never would So believing you know better just makes you look a prat what you are is lesser and that is but a fact, craving some attention because you don’t get that everything you do is selfish so we feel no impact
