the disillusions of life:

when u thought u knew someone, but actually that person is a double headed snake.
speaking something to one, appearing so innocent to another.
can't we just be true to ourselves at least?
it gets tiresome to be constantly cautious of what i hear, putting the words through an invisible filter.

it's easier to speak based on hearsay than to truly understand someone on a personal basis.
for a moment, i thought i don't know you at all.

on a side note:

heard today that renewal of the mind is not to just put upon the old self all the new values, but rather it is to go deeper into the basic foundation and starting afresh with that new revelation.
how true that we just tend to apply that principle only on the surface, and attempt to only decrease or increase a certain element in our lives, instead of completely removing and starting anew.
