Can anybody really tell who they are?
I believe we have perceptions of who we are, but often times, this does not coincide with how our friends and the people around us perceive us. As to why this is so, I really don’t know. It could be that our actions do not coincide with our thoughts.
People, even those closest to me, have come and said to me that they don’t really know who I am. ‘Mahirap daw e-timpla’ ^^. One factor I think is that I rarely share personal memories with them. I was taken aback when I heard this because it’s not that I meant not to share but it’s simply because I hardly remember the details of any memory I have. I also thought that they were not worth sharing. But I was wrong, what I thought was worthless was actually what my friends wanted to know. Every story, good or bad, happy or sad, opens me up to them. Each life memory, tells them who I really am. Letting them see pass through the image I project. In return, in them, I see who I really am.
That is why I have taken this challenge in maintaining my own website. I am hoping to preserve the memories I’m going to make from now on. I do not intend to keep a diary :p, I just hope that more people will know me better through the articles that I will publish on this site. And whenever they feel that I am holding anything back, they can always come to this site and see ME.
