For who I am

How many times have you thought to yourself...If only they could see who I really am, they wouldn't *insert whatever statement here*. For example:

If only they could see who I really am, they wouldn't laugh. They wouldn't underestimate. They would be attracted to me. They'd understand my potential.

Well who or what is keeping them from seeing the real you? And what are you doing to change that?

I have to call myself out on that on a regular basis. First I have to figure out who the real me is. I'm good at being a variety of fake mes. But I don't think I have known who the real me is, ever. It'd be nice to find out. I'm trying. My relationship with God is awkward at best. Something about that whole unworthy of His love and grace thing that I can't get past. How about the 'I know I'm going to be a constant disappointment' excuse? I use that one constantly. I haven't had a genuine talent since high school. I'm not one to be a negative gal. I enjoy life and being happy. That is true. However, looking at my life right now I don't see myself succeeding at much of anything.

If they could see who I really am, they'd have their assumptions confirmed, and then where would we be?
