Real


I liked this blog:

I'm a big fan of being real. It's a risk some of us don't always want to take. What if the real me isn't liked? If I admit that I'm not as happy/together/good as I like to make out, maybe people will go off me, maybe I'll be judged and found wanting? What I've found tho is that when I've risked being vulnerable, showing my grumpy, crappy side, lovely people haven't been put off at all. They know they're not always shiny too and have their own skeletons in the cupboard, and are usually quite happy to have the chance to stop trying so flippin hard to look good too.
Truth is I'd much rather be loved for who I actually am and not who I pretend to be. And I like you just the way you are too, underneath that mask...
