People are never truly what they want to be, and they often times are never the person they see in the mirror. They hide themselves, I've been hiding myself behind my work and being online all the time. Yet, I'm aware that there is another side to my face when I look in the mirror, a side that has been put aside and hidden from the world. I've been trying since the beginning of this year to recognize my flaws and to take notes on the things that I've seen and that others have seen. Just last night, I realized that time truly flies, and that everyday is a gift that should be respected and treated like precious diamonds.
I can slowly see myself growing, and I can see that having someone in my world that I can see everyday is helping me grow. Not that others didn't help me grow, they truly did, but when someone is literally with you everyday they see things that you don't see, and they have no problem being honest with you about those elements when you need them to be.
We all are different behind closed doors, then we are when we're in the world. But I know that I need to push the doors open and allow the world to see me for who I really am. And that I need to work smarter to make every day count, and I need to work harder to hold the people that are important to me closer to me. Letting go of the past or even people is very hard, because I miss them daily but I also realize that "Life Goes On" and that life is a journey in which we are meant to meet new people that can continue to expand our experiences and knowledge in this world. So don't hide behind your face, don't allow fear and complacency to hold you back... go out into the world and show people your face
