What are you waiting for?
The one thing I want more than anything in the world is to know people for who they really are. Not the plastic,” I want to impress you", mask that hides their true self. How can friendship ever grow if you aren't learning about the person on the inside but instead accepting the actor playing the role on the outside?
I have always prided myself on being an honest person and I have learned the hard way that I sometimes hurt people with the things that I say. Then I stop and think about the course of my life. Do I want to spend MY whole life having people tell me what I WANT to hear or what I NEED to hear? While it is sometimes hard to accept that we NEED to hear things that may hurt...In the long run it helps us grow as individuals.
Much heartache and many tears over the course of my life have left me searching for REAL people. So many times I found myself trusting only what was presented to me instead of searching deeper for what lies beneath in one's "true" self. All of those heartaches taught me to search for what's real and authentic. Inside every exterior carbon copy is a real person. A person who may have been hurt, or a person who can't trust, or even love. There may be a person whose life has been left in shambles due to their own pride or greed. The world is filled with people who have reasons for building themselves in behind a lonely wall. With-in the confines of these self-made walls lay a wounded person struggling to figure out "why". They don't want the world to see the real them anymore so they become what they think the world wants them to be.
No matter the circumstance...the heartache...the past....the guilt...or what ever else that has caused you to hide your "true" self from the world. I can handle it...You are not who you are because of what has happened to you. You are who you are by choice. Don't be afraid to be your self...Thats the person that matters most.
