I’ve noticed lately that a lot of people in my life have been being honest with themselves. I can honestly say that I’m surprised and kinda pleased too. People are finally starting to understand that it’s okay to tell the truth. From things like “No I’m not doing so well right now” to “I don’t really wanna hang with these people”, People are just telling it like it is to themselves. For me being honest with myself is a very important thing. Why should I lie to myself? To make you feel good? To make others feel worse? To make me feel better about the situtation? That’s just ignorant. I know my limits and I know what I can and can’t do. I strive to surpass those limits but I don’t sugar coat and make it seem like I can do things I can’t and that I am things when I most certainly am NOT. I might not be the best or have everything I want but at least I can look myself in the mirror or sleep peacefully at night. Remember: “You can always lie to me and I can always lie to you but we must never lie to ourselves.” Seriously…How do you ever plan to master your own life if you can’t even be honest with yourself? You can’t.
