To you really want the truth?

Have you ever thought about what someone would think if they were to have access to your journals - both live and private - to your books, and art... Pretty much to just poke around and read what you read, write, everything. Would they form an opinion of you that was different from people around you? Would they understand you?

That train of thought leads to how well the people around you understand you. One of my teachers once told me that we are different to each person we encounter. To our parents, we are their children. Some of us are brothers and sisters, some friends, some enemies, some lovers, and some just random aquaintances. But in only seeing one, maybe two, facets of each person... How much do we really know?

People are not always honest, either. Sometimes they don't say something because they want to spare someone's feelings. Sometimes because they don't feel like dealing with it. Sometimes, just because they don't want to reveal something.

The point of this post, and the whole ramble, is that in this post I am going to let everyone ask a maximum of two questions with the promise that they can ask anything and get an honest answer. I swear that the questions will be answered in full (no single word answers) and that I won't be evasive, but answer truthfully.

Ask away. But ask yourself this, do you have the courage to post this in your own journal?
