The ultimate need: To express one's self
Looking at movies, I always thought that the ultimate need was to be loved. But looking at it now, years later, and supposedly more mature, my views on the issue are totally differently. Although I may often be a loud (crazy, passionate etc - I'm your stereotypical Mediterranean person) I can also be quite shy. Weird, I know. But the story behind this is that when I deactived my Facebook & Twitter account months ago (facebook was re-actived, I guess my self-discipline skills aren't that great) I was driving insane. And the reason why I was driving insane was not only the fact that the deactivation of profiles saved me loads of time, but also because I was no longer able to express my self.
Even the smallest thing, like uploading a music video, or posting your favorite quote on your wall, or tweeting about what you're doing at a specif time.. All of those usually considered unimportant actions, do actually express who you are -in both direct and indirect ways-. Bloggers, Youtubers, singers, artists.. .It's all about getting a message, your message across. It's all about expressing who you truly are, expressing your fears, your hopes, the things that piss you off, everything.
The need to be loved is strong but the need to express our selves is even stronger...
Love,
