essentially seeing through your own ego and into the world (or into another) however, we're built to perform. we perform for our parents. we perform for school. we perform for our friends. we perform for our work. we perform for society. and we're constantly calculating and hiding and expressing and exploring. so how freeing and frightening it is to meet someone who wants to see the real you? and how curious and intimate it is to meet someone who isn't afraid to show you who they are? and how beautiful it is to be loved in authenticity. great thoughts. great post. :3
