Today’s daily prompt is another interesting question:
What is your worst quality?
I believe that I’ve got two qualities which can be considered “bad”:
- being a perfectionist
- being brutally honest
Whether I write, I take photos, I work out, I lose weight or just plan a vacation, I’m always seeking to be perfect at it. I was never a girly-girl but I like to look good – if possible, without a lot of effort, too (I know, that’s kind of impossible). I annoy my colleagues with my demands sometimes (especially since I am the one who insures quality control for some things) and I am certainly harsh on myself when I write.
As for being brutally honest, I was told many times to try to be “more diplomatic” and even learn some “white lies” in order to wiggle my way around things. Fortunately, I’d rather stick to brutally honest.

Hooray for unapologetically being ourselves!
When I was a bit younger – think early to mid 20s – I thought there was something wrong with me for being a bit different than others and my ex wanted me to change. All I did change was the person I am with. LOL
That’s the way to do it. I think we probably all (or most of us anyway) go through something similar in our youth. (“youth” just varies widely from person to person)
Yeah, and it takes a quite a lot of courage to stand up for yourself when you are still “young”. But oh so worth it!
One of thoese live and learn things for sure.
Or at least we try!
