I must say I disagree with that. What counts is a person's own opinion of
himself/herself. Some people out there are looked down at yet they find real
happiness and satisfaction in life. Well regarded celebrities sometimes hide
their depression and even commit suicide. So my point is... care none about
what people think of you. A pre-requite to happiness is the opinion on
oneself.
