being

Some thoughts are best left unthought,
while some words are best left unsaid.
Some parts of ourselves are best unrevealed,
while some parts of ourselves are best revealed.

Today, I want to be as I want to seem. I haven't been totally at my best recently, saying things that normally don't leave my mouth, being too open with people only to feel closed off. Life is like that... a decision between what to show and what to hide in our daily living. Perhaps that's called 'not being yourself', but if those parts of yourself lead you down to the same mistakable paths, perhaps it's time to slowly draw them out until they are no longer part of you.
