You are NOT who you think you are.... |
I'd like to present an argument. "You are NOT who you think
you are!" In fact, you are more than and better than you think!
From the
time we break free of our cocoons that lay ever so peacefully in our mums
belly, to that moment when we realize we've been alive long enough to remember
when tape cassettes were the best thing since a boom box; we are programmed what
to think about ourselves.
Before
we are born there is someone or someone's that has hoped and prayed for you to
come out a certain way. Whether it’s your dad who wants you to come out a boy,
or your mum who wants you to come out a girl with her beautiful brown eyes; someone
has predetermined who they want you to be.
From there we all know the routine. Our
parents’ guide us and shapes us into an almost symmetrical figure that reflects
that which they would like to see in you. Society manipulates and distorts
reality to the point that anyone is subject to a smidge of mental illness due
to constant trickery. When are we able to figure out who we are?
The biggest issue with such extravagant
outside influences is the inability for us to separate the lies from OUR TRUTH! Our truth becomes as simple as what makes sense to us and what makes us feel good. I challenge
you to quiet the voices in your mind and ask yourself: WHY? Why do you really
think the things that you think about yourself, good or bad? Is it your truth.
