"Arrogance in moderation does wonders to one's personality!!”... I recently read this somewhere...cannot recall the exact context... but it did register in my permanent memory.
My first reaction was…did I read correctly? And then I read it again... and smiled...!! I was pleasantly surprised and relaxed. In one short and subtle sentence, someone has expressed what I feel so strongly about.
I AM arrogant... and I have made peace with this truth. Yes, there was a time when I was troubled and felt guilty about this very strong trait of my character. But as I retrospect and realize... that it is quintessentially me... and it is no WRONG...and that it is NORMAL... Coming to think of it , arrogance has rather been quiet helpful all these years...!!
People around me know for very sure that I will not take any rubbish from them... they are even scared sometimes... and it helps me speak my own mind...to have my own space.. They know that they will have to reason with me logically before they could convince me...and it helps me be independent and more confident…
In this society, where anyone to everyone whether qualified or not is ready with number of suggestions... more so for a girl...!! Where if you let others take control of your life even for once... they assume right on all your decisions...!! People are ready to trample you and make you follow the society norms..., it helps to be arrogant... :-)
