I am amazed at how you can be friends with someone for years and then discover that they really do not know you at all. They have a version of you in their head and chose to remeber things that you say and do to support this vision rather than actually listen to what you are telling them. Since doscovering this I have been analysis my friendships and the views that I have of people and I can not honestly say that I know all are 100% acurate, but then I guess that is the thing - you do not realize you do not know someone until something happens. Although even with the events of the last while I do not know if this friend realize that the image held of me is not acurate. While I was enlightened that this person does not know the real me, is this person being enlightened that they do not really know me? I do not know. Sorry I realize this probably sounds very strange and crazy, but hey that is me so what do you expect.
I am reminded of the song by Jaci Velasquez that goes "This is the real me, am I the girl that you want me to be? This is the real me, Can you face it, Can you feel it, Can you take it, Can you deal with, The real me" (and yes for those of you who know the song there is a line missing because it does not fit with what I am saying). I have spent the last few years discovering for myself who the real me is and I must say I was rather hurt to discover that my friend (maybe more??) does not know who I am.
Now I must get back to packing, oh that is right I am going to watch a movie and have some fun instead. Take care and God bless.
