My Favorite Thing

I think it is important to have a favorite thing. Favorite color, favorite actor, favorite cartoon character, favorite book, favorite movie… an endless lists of it. Simply because I think The Little Prince would be a better answer to define yourself rather than I don’t know, I have so many favorite books.

I love to be judged by my passions. It sounds so weird, the part that I love to be judged, but I gave up the idea of no judging at all a long time ago. The truth is, people will judge you, and when that’s the case, proceed with something brilliantly good. Of course there will always an option to be happy go lucky and carefree about it, but there will be too, people that can’t do that.

Me; definitely the latter. So yes, I overthink and feel insecure over so many things in this world, including being judged. Nevertheless, I judge too. When you ask, read, or even see a post regarding of something someone favoring about, you can’t help to judge. Well, this is a social media era after all. When someone says his/her favorite movie is The Breakfast Club, you judge. When someone says his/her favorite movie is The Avengers, you judge. What kind of judgment it is, of course varies. I like being judged for stuffs I love and favors, because I believe they define what kind of souls I am made of. I want to be seen as what I love. 

Because you will want to be seen like the things you love. Your favorite thing. Thing that, makes you feel relatable, bursting in emotion, and captivated. If that is SpongeBob SquarePants, so be it. It still better than I like everything cliché. So love something… remarkably, insanely, and share to the world why.

In fact, my stuffs are not about all blue just because I love the color blue. I definitely don’t wear a blue shirt over blue skirt with blue bag because it is wrong at so many levels.  Regardless, there’s something personal about blue that feels, me.  That’s why it’s my favorite color.

Just because I love The Little Prince so much, it doesn’t make me un-love Harry Potter. I obviously love Harry Potter. But throughout, at a specific extent, I don’t think Harry Potter defines me. I think the term my favorite is so much more than things you keen, love, and generally prefer. Being a terminal awkward person especially, my conversation often being led by questions like my favorite thing all the time. When you ask me about books I enjoy reading, I can name ten, twenty, thirty of it. It’s not like I love them less (because I am one of those people that believe love can’t be measured), but my favorite book is The Little Prince.

To be seen as someone who loves The Little Prince is a compliment for me, because since it’s my favorite thing, I am bound to always feel good about it. So, judge me, whatever. I always feel insecure about my appearance; my weight, my hair and everything, but never once I feel insecure by my favorite thing.
