it’s a lie…

December 8, 2007 at 4:26 am (Musings)

you lie. you’ve spent all your life lying. most will probably never see your true self. each time you get out you put on a mask, showing to people what you want them to see in you. you be what you want them to see you as. you act like you want them to see you act. you behave like you want them to see you behave. … and why? you say because you want to fit in. because you want to be accepted. that’s the only reason you can think of.

but once in a while, somewhere down the line, you meet someone to whom you just can’t lie. to whom you don’t need to lie. you don’t worry about fitting in. you don’t have to worry. you can be yourself without fear of rejection. you can be true for the first time in your life. true to yourself. that person, that special person, ignores all your faults. ignores all the bad you have in you. sees only the good and likes you for whatever little of it you have.

… but what if that person is lying… to you?

    It may interest you to know that the “issue” u raised is well known in the “JV” circle. Anyhow as far as i am concerned , I don’t lie , see my true self because I don’t care about “fitting in” . But surprisingly, ya I have people who accept me for what I am. But even if they weren’t there I would be what I am.
    so be u.
    nice post, felt like you are hurt.
