the brave soul of yours to be seen and the courage underneath it depicts how great of a person you are and so, do not be held upon customs/standards once written in the facade of other people. yet be the start of your uniquetivity to embrace the life that's awaiting for your authenticity.

the relativity effect will come to you eventually as you attract more of it with an attachment of immense joy ;) great read! 🤍

the fear of being perceived hits deep. my brother’s an artist, and at his very first art show, his placard said that his work aims to "break down identity, mental health, and the weight of being perceived." even he didn’t realize just how many people carried that weight until he watched strangers pause, reread, and really FEEL those words too. reading this, i felt it again myself—that push and pull between wanting to be known and wanting to disappear. you captured it so well.

Wow, it really is a universal fear, one that we all struggle with. I guess it’s the vulnerability of someone misinterpreting the purest version of who we are and having no control over it, so our minds tell us it’s better to hide away. Thank you for appreciating my words❤️
