self realization

understanding the realization of who and what you are and why, while still understand what you also could be. And yet you are still so much more than you could imagine.
  • Am I who I am because of what I am or because I believe that makes it true
    It does yet it does not, it is an honest truth that is a lie,it is what it is because we believe it to be so when we see it. But when we become it, that in itself is a whole nother story which is still essentially the same.

  • I have a similar opinion.
    Basically, are we ourselves, or do we become our who we want to be? Are we controlled by self-expectations and wishes? I think sometimes we lose ourselves in this dream of who our perfect self is, who our perfect mate is, and what our perfect life is. We get lost in that dream until we think we are in it, but are just really fooling ourselves. We trick ourselves into thinking we're fine. Other times, we have this dream staring us right in the face, and yet we can never live up to it. So we get sad. That way, our dreams and self-expectations control us no matter what.

    That just made me realize. What really convicts us and gives us guilt is not our wrongs staring us in the face, it's our perfect standard staring us in the face.

    Thus, there are two types of people. The ones who have fooled themselves into thinking their fine by losing themselves in their dreams, and there are the people riddled with guilt with our dreams right beyond our reach.
