If we think we can get self confidence from fancy foods (from what we eat), clothes (what we wear), fancy social media posts (people s positive reactions) we are as cheap as those things (to put it rudly), true self confidence is not defined with material things, it doesn't come that easy and cheap. It comes from deep within. It is as expensive as a unique piece of a unique metal. Once we have it, we can't lose it. But the "confidence" (we are calling) that is coming from clothes or food or pictures can be lost once we lose those things, and we know it very well, thus we die to wear new, eat fancy, picture fancy to maintain that fake confidence. Time to wake up and realize those are not true confidence givers rather they kill confidence and make one rely on people, their opinions, their thoughts (which is riya).
Time to work on gaining true confidence that comes from within, and that cannot be easily killed.
