I’m never sure what’s the right thing to do, or what’s the right thing to say. I believe we all spend so much time not saying how we truly feel, and we do this because we fear consequences, we want to ignore reality, or we truly are uncertain of how we feel. Regardless of what it is, we always hide our true thoughts and feelings. We even do it to ourselves, we change and warp our own reality to base it off an ideal world that we want to believe in but never really exists. But then again what is reality? We live in the reality the we create for ourselves. We construct our own morals, thoughts, and ideals. We create the realm in which we live in.
I’m siting in this room surrounded by people that all have their own reality but they all look the same based off their external expressions. They all have so much to say, but not a word is said. They all are different but there is not a difference notified.
Anyways I’m rambling now aren’t I?
The point is….what I’m trying to say is…I don’t know what I’m trying to say”….
I would continue the message here but I’ll cut the cliche ending to save you some time.
After reflecting
I still don’t have my thoughts straight, I still don’t know who I am, and I still don’t know why I feel certain ways about certain people. So i guess this doesn’t really help much, but something I’ve realized continuously is that change will always be implemented in us and our minds.
Good night

I’m in awe by your insight; you wonderfully worded an aspect of life that I totally relate with: being afraid to express my true self. I’ve taken risks on certain occasions of giving heart-felt letters or speeches of thanks to the people who really played a wonderful part in my life, but I always am so very nervous about expressing my true self to them. My therapist compares me to a hermit crab: once I give somebody my heart, I retract back into my shell. Other than expressing my true self to others, I also don’t express it to myself as I should. Too many people are cowards, and I wish I weren’t one of them! It sucks to have depression and anxiety because it just makes things worse! Thank you again for sharing this with us 🙂 Good night!
After half the letter I actually thouht it was going to be a confessikn of love, don’t know why that came to my mind. What was the intention for you to write this?
