uh oh, emo...
this is who i am:
i am not going to apologize for who i am because i am old enough to know what i think and feel and how they are connected to me through my past experience and my personality are what make me me, and while I am not perfect, i think i am a good, honest (for the most part) and loving person.
i recognize i am going to have thoughts, ideas, mentalities that are fundamentally different from yours, but as long as they don't hurt anyone, i am ok with that, and won't ask you to change,for me, and won't become upset, threatened, or annoyed as long as seem to be conscious that everyone has different sensibilities.
if i say something that seems to criticize, it is to justify how i think you are evaluating me. we all see through different lenses, and i try to step back and realize different perspectives, but i also ask others to do the same. it is surprising what one finds. maybe you think you are right, maybe i think i am right, but maybe we are using entirely different world views/perspectives to form our thoughts and so it is wise to realize that most of what we see and feel is specualitive and open to many types of interpretation. No single one is entirely correct.
i love you, all of you, and will not ask you to change, as you are constantly changing, and hope only you can accept me as i am and know that i am changing too. We are moebius strips, and circular, and always flowing from one thought or lifestyle to another, and it is our awareness of who we are that grounds us. I realize there are flaws in my own awareness, in my perspective, but they are what make me who i am, and i am not ignorant of them, and i am working on them.
i am not perfect, nor will i ever be, but i love and i feel and i care, and sometimes that leads to crying, sometimes that might lead to actions or behaviours that you may not understand, but that doesn't make them worthy of criticism.
i work with what i have, and it may be that i am just a little too self involved, but i see it as a consideration, as i have my own imperfections to work on before pointing out yours. and those imperfections may be a result of different ideas we have of the world, and so sometimes its best to let them be.
i am vulnerable, sensitive, and afraid. but i recognize that, and i offer that up freely to those i love. maybe because of that, it is harder to really love people, but please realize that i am trusting you enough to still love me after everything is said and done, as i will unfailingly love you. and that is amazingly difficult as humans are judgmental creatures.
i am extremely faithful, as it is my nature to do so.
i really do love you.
