Spending Time.
Whenever someone tells me they get me and they understand me, the skeptical part inside of me just goes like "do you? do you really understand me?". Of course, I don't say this out loud because its just downright rude, but it does say that every single time.
Hello there, I am the Earthian.
And then it goes "Nah, you have no idea of who I am". But it also gets flattered someone thinks they understand me.
Its not because I think too highly of myself and because I believe nobody else can or would ever understand me, its just, most of the time, I find it hard to understand myself. In fact, I have next to no idea of who I am or what I am capable of. Not just that, I am okay, one hundred percent, with being this way. One of the questions I have come to dread these days is "So, can you tell me a little bit about yourself?", because the answer is, no. Not that I don't want to tell you about myself but that I don't know what to tell you. There is too much and nothing at all about me at the very same time. I could keep talking about myself or I could say nothing at all about myself and it still wouldn't make a difference, because chances are I am going to change. The more logical question to ask me would be "what kind of person do you want to be?", but then again, lets just face it, I just am not worth that much attention so you might as well not talk to me at all. Just kidding! Ha! got you! Or maybe not. It doesn't matter.
The point I am trying to make is that being human is so much more than we could ever think off. It can be easily described with words but there will always be that feeling of selling yourself short if you use your words to describe who you are. Any person who actually wants to get to know you will just have to digest the fact that spending time with you with the intention of doing so is probably their best way of getting at least a ray of light about who you are as a person. And the same goes for you if you want to get to know someone. And it damn sure applies to you getting to know yourself too. You can die without ever knowing who you are or what you're capable of if you just don't spend time with yourself. Harsh, I know, but it is what it is.
Love, peace.
