Go my own way

                      Go my own way

                                  --------Jesse(Original)

        Go on your own way in the public eye. Since Italian writer Dante blurted out the words about 700 years ago, it has lingered on the lips of many guys. For what? I think it is full of freedom and courage, as well as self-belief.

        Actions in this way demand courage, which is based on self-belief. It sounds free with a kind of romantism.

        As long as you behave well, never glance back. Just head forwards. Everyone is in public in this modern society. Genuinely speaking, we can't slip away without the notice of others. Too much care about others makes one hesitate often. Indeed, we often care about others' small talk, and about others' eyes. Thus we are often subject to others' chat.

        It's quite unnecessary. We are what we are ourselves, and we will be what we want to be. No one can go instead of us.

        If I am a crocodile, I will shed my tears freely, not because I am a crocodile, but because I do have tears. Of course, crocodile tears in English means fake mercy.

        If I behave righteously, I owe no mercy to anyone, how can I be pretending mercy?

        I mean, here, just go on my own way, and let others talk or chat. People like finding faults with others, while they think they are perfect. This is the common practice, and it's a pity that it will last.

        From the craddle to the grave, everyone is no more than himself. Why take great trouble to please others, if they are not your parents, your lover, or your kids? Live your own way as long as it doesnt't disturb others.

        French writer and physicist Pascal said, a human is nothing but a fragile reed, but he has thoughts. Yes, thoughts determine a human being, otherwise, can he be called human? So think before you leap, but never think before you walk in front of others.

        Walk your own way as graceful as a swan, and never mind the critical eyes of the toad.

        If you are a  little better than others, they will certainly envy you, and if you are a lot better than them, and they can't catch up with you, they will glance up at you and envy you, I mean, idolatrize you.

        No exceptions, everyone acts like this, including you and me.

        Rumours and slanders are just srumbs of bread and so just brush them away. It is too much for one to care much. Too heavy a load will be the last straw that crushes the camel. Wear bright make-up, or go plain, is your own choice. It is another business whether others interfere or not. Go your own way in public eyes just as Danter said 700 years ago.

to be honest, walk my own way is much cooler,I like it.
but, since we are human being, most of time we have to care the public eyes, because one can not judge himself that he is right or wrong, but he will always think that he is right. but if others and more others think that he is wrong , then he is wrong.
for instance, two naked guys run on the street( Isaw in the newspaper), no matter  for what kind of reason, that the public will think they are wrong, but they never think so. how do you think.
of cource, everything has its different situation.

I  agree with you.  we're unique, and the choice is always in our own hands! Don't care what other say,  care what yourself say in your own heart!
