Different Faces……… Different Places

‘When in Rome do exactly like Romans do’, have u noticed that v ourselves practice the same from time to time.

As an obedient child, an eager student, an interesting friend, a zealous worker, an avid lover, a faithful companion, a dependable father, a dutiful son & an affectionate grandparent. But what is more concerning to me is that sometimes u get so engrossed in who u r supposed to be, that u stop being u……

Her guard is up at all times, a no-nonsense person, which inevitable tends to having very selective friendships and even paltry relationships. Since I do not work with her so this opinion is solely based on feedback from her colleagues, even so she herself has admitted to striving to maintain this illusion as it works well for her.

The sad part is that is as I got to know her better I realized that this pretentiously monochromatic persona is not who she really is but a far more vibrant & carefree person who wants to live every moment & is quite refreshing. 

You judge a person before knowing them & when u do get to know they surpass all your expectations & teach you to never to judge a book by its cover.
