We all crave attention

Well, it is pouring with rain this morning in London. I detest rain, oh and snow. Not a great start to the week!

Regardless of this horrific weather, I’m actually in a good mood. I also thought of something to write a post about. That always makes me happy, when the inspiration comes out of nowhere. I mean that’s what happens to writers of every sort right?

So, you probably could have guessed due to the title what this post is about. We all crave attention.

Anyone who says they do not are lying. Everyone wants to be heard, be seen. I’m actually a really humble person. I do not think I’m amazing looking or that I’m special. But what I do have is a good opinion of myself which is all that matters in this world.

If I look nice, I could just feel that within myself but I feel the need to take a selfie. This isn’t to show off how much better I am or how great I am. No, this is because I feel pretty, I want the world to see that I’m proud of how I look. So I want attention, but not because I’m vain. Because I want to show I love myself.

Obviously, any post anyone does, will be posted with the intention of getting likes or comments. And this makes people feel good, whatever it is. Whether it be a selfie, whether it be a quote. We all want people to notice we have a voice and opinions.

Some of us in this world, want to help others by what we post. I blog to help myself vent and work on my emotions. If people read my blog it makes me happy but if they don’t I know I’ve gotten the thoughts off my chest. And that is the main reason I blog.

I think what I write about is interesting because I think I’m interesting. I mean we all are, aren’t we? Why not share that with the world?

I think the main thing to remember from this post is that we all crave attention, in whatever we see as worthwhile to ourselves.
