I have adapted most of my life. Constantly shifting from one persona to the next, always changing masks to meet the expectations of the current environment. I’ve always carried the belief that the less amount of ME that is brought to each situation, the better.
That belief system has been the cause of a tremendous amount of heartache. my addiction. I have been completely disconnected from any source of inner guidance, just moving from one moment to the next as quietly as possible, in an attempt to go unnoticed.
Today I saw this quote:
In order to be the same person privately, publicly and personally … you must get to know that person ALTOGETHER.
It stopped me in my tracks. I have no idea who I am. In a 24 hour period I have multiple masks that I wear. I always feel the need to hide myself and after doing it for so long I’ve lost contact with the person underneath.
If I could meet one person in the entire world, it would be … myself.
