Thoughts:
Honesty and closeness to reality is so important. Just imagine a world in which people will be open and self-aware of their actual condition and seeing the world for what is it and not what they wish it to be. I don’t mean that I wish for less imagination and more rationality, both are very important and I think should be in the same quantity. I mean that if all of us will be open, honest and telling the actual truth about what we feel, what we see and why we see it and feel it that way. We all will live in a better world because of our collective effort to make it so.
I think peoples don’t tell the truth because of the bad side of human nature that lies in each one of us. We fear judgment from the others because we are not comfortable with ourselves, because we don’t really know who we are. Or think that others are seeing better our flaws. That should be the case if we don’t practice self-awareness. Other might be right about our action but not about our reasons and motives, because only you have the inside context.
Having truly real peace with yourself is the greatest achievement that you can have. Embracing all your strangeness, flaws, strengths and fully accepting yourself will give so much peace and freedom to live at your most authentic way possible.
