I've been pleasantly surprised lately. Apparently, people know me better than I thought they did.
I've always felt like I was introverted, and so I didn't really talk about myself in much details. I say things, but a lot of times I feel like people aren't interested in my problems or how I feel, so I don't say much.
A friend invited me on a trip last week. When it was almost time to actually go, he understood that I would feel left out with a bunch of strangers, and decided that maybe it was best I didn't go. I was actually surprised to know that he put some thought in how I would feel in that situation. I didn't even know that he knew me that well.
My best friend told me that I should seriously stop sitting around, and actually do what I really want to do with my life. That there were ways to actually do what I want to do while doing the things that I have to do. It's so nice to have a fresh perspective, and she's totally right. I should do what I love. I don't want any regrets.
Someone else told me that I make things more difficult than they really are. I really needed a reality check, and boy did they give it to me. I know what the right thing to do is, and so I should just do it.
Another friend always offers to drive me places because she knows how much I hate driving. I think that's totally considerate of her, and I always appreciate it.
Many times people will say something about me, and I'd be surprised that they even noticed. They'll comment that I'm always eating the same things, or that I always make a certain face when I am upset, or the fact that I can't sit still and am always wiggling my toes. You guys notice? I had no idea.
Maybe I am more transparent than I thought I was. No, I think I just have amazing people in my life.
