"Will the real Slim Shadey please stand up ?" - Eminem
We live in a society where many of us wear different "hats." For instance, I am or have been, at any given time a mother, sister, daughter, employee, friend, lover, girlfriend or wife (and I'm sure the list could multiply itself like rabbits).
To often though it seems like the person wearing these "hats" will take on a new personality. "Mom" maybe more aggressive & assertive. "Friend" more quiet, more willing to bend & "allow". Sometimes even our name creates an image .... Or an expectation of behavior.
What happens though when that personality or expectation of behavior hurts you or other people? Lies to other people? Hides from those who love or care about you? What if that "hat" is not healthy? Will you recognize it? ... What if others point it out?
Heres the bottom line people. We can talk till we are dead - if that person sees NOTHING wrong ... No error in the behavior .... Its not going to change.
When someone shows you who they are believe them! Stop fighting the cosmic forces, God, Mother Nature or which ever you believe. When its revealed to you ... Take heed! However, in case you miss the sign ... Oh rest assured you will see it again and again and again.
Having different roles in life are inevitable ... BUT the CORE of that "hat" should still be you!
-1 Love.
