We all live under a veil, wear a mask , or hide behind some screen...
But when we are alone, we say things to ourselves that no one else hears.
The darker recesses of our minds reach the surface.
We tell ourselves the truths we know, or ... want to believe.
We deceive ourselves first before we deceive others.
This seems like a bad thing, but when it comes to confidence... Is it?
Sometimes we know the truth , but still choose to lie.
It might not be in our words but in our actions.
We make the biggest promises when happy, but will you follow through if you are not?
We can feel so alone in a sea of people , but its because loneliness is not having anyone to identify with you.
There are times, when a world of emotions rushes over me, and I am not able to comprehend or identify them , as if my emotional intelligence is that of a young child.
But remembering that I feel, reminds me that I am alive.
The self I was last year , against who I am now, is the same, the place in my head is familiar but its a different room.
Give the self a chance.
And if needs be, Give it room to change.
Until Next time...
PS these are Notes to future me.
