Our mind loves to bring us down. Some of these attacks can lead us to think less of ourselves. Self-esteem can drop along with self image. We can become afraid to let people see the real us. So we put on an act. I fell fault in trying to blend into the crowd I would be around. I also resorted to alcohol to deal with the ongoing battle inside me.
And then I asked for help. At that point I made a decision to go find the real me. To be someone I didn't feel I needed to hide behind. Someone I would be happy to look at in the mirror. It takes a lot of work, but it is an extremely attainable goal and I feel like I'm getting there...finally.
And you can too! We owe it to ourselves to be the best we can be. An we deserve to be the real me or or the real you or the real us.
Thank you for listening! Jason
