a mirage.
it only exists when i'm not looking at it.
or maybe it only exists when i'm looking directly at it.
i don't know. either way; sometimes it exists, sometimes it doesn't.
I like this description.
If you build your personality from the outside, you end up like a crab with a hard outer shell - an exoskeleton. And if you want to grow you must first shed your outer shell otherwise it will strangle you.
But if you build from the inside, you end up like a leopard, lithe and strong. Your personality permeates your whole body and grows when you do.
The nicest thing I have found is to slowly express my inner self so that my inner self becomes my normal personality.
What can I say? When I express my inner self successfully in the outer world, I feel joy.
Great post. I don't feel my personality is a put on in anyway but it certainly has a thickened skin. Anyway, thanks for your thoughts. Really made me reflect.
