nudge

i'm not perfect and i know i'll never be. but i can get close to it if you help and support me. don't judge based on what your eyes can only see. a picture can say a thousand words and not one describing me. nothing is ever what you assumed it would be. if you want to know take the time to find out sincerely.

have you ever noticed that the greatest comedians are those whose life is in shambles? we laugh and pretend we are okay even though we are not. society praises only the strong. weakness belittled and shoved away. never talked about again. superficial relations come a plenty. and so does empty advices that help no one. within ourselves secrets kept. too fearful of being found and be judged harshly. hard to find someone who will listen and understand. and so we bleed solely within. noone realizing our pain.

next time you are around those who you truly care about wonder out loud. take the time to connect and bridge over gaps lost while we are too busy living our own lives. someone is reaching out. and that person is fearful of rejection from you for feeling an emotion. did you take the time to look? did you see me? did you take the time to know? do you get me?

glass half empty. glass half full. how do you see your life? honestly...eyes wide shut.
