When I put myself through changes, I don’t have much pain for acceptance is my guiding light. I accept that change asks for losing something. I live reality. Henceforth there can’t be a popping big bubbling bubble for me. I am who I am and I live and show who I am. Masks and facades… well, yes, if necessary I use those for the better good, but I put them back aside as soon as they served their purpose. Yet using a masquerade is always an exception for me. The question is why do you need a facade? Don’t you like yourself? Well, it’s just an idea, but can it be that you think people wouldn’t like the person you really are? I mean, maybe you think you sort of have to be somebody else for people like you all the time. If so, forget about that for this is not necessary. It’s hard to be famous, I know, the more important it is to appreciate the little things. The love, friendship or admiration of a few people or a single person is much more meaningful/important than the admiration of thousands of people. However, a change means to change and not to mask yourself. No matter if you feel small or great – everybody is somebody and I think you have no reason to feel so insure and small. Stand by you and if you dislike the way you are, then change it – change, not mask.

Note to self: check size of own ego, and resize downwards.

As I reflect on my life I remember feeling small, insignificant and powerless as a child. I hated that feeling and at certain points throughout my life that feeling has returned, but I no longer resent or hate it. In my early twenties I felt empowered until something happened to change my circumstances and then I realized I had mistaken an over inflated ego for empowerment. Talk about feeling humbled.

Don’t worry or fret over feeling humbled. Humility is a good thing in that over time you will realize that people who maintain a sense of humility for most of their lives are able to keep the rest of the world and the other people in it in a clear perspective. Humility keeps the windshield from fogging up.
