MAJIC Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Apart from some attempts at humour,what you see is what you get. Or, more realistically, what we think we see is not really there. Everyone's reality is different, And therefore there can be no single reality. Even what we think is true about ourselves Is not true And others can see that we do not really know ourselves as much as we think we do. It makes no difference if we are on TV or if we are not. We still do not know ourselves But only think that we do. So how could we be true to ourselves, If the above is true. Which it is. Well you may not know yourself,but some of us are very analitical,and most certainly do know ourselves. It's called "finding yourself" if you have not reached that stage yet,then keep trying,it's a very long road! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To OCH and MAJIC: Is it really YOU, you have found, or has this trivial realisation manifested merely in a puppet of one's-self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poanoi Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I'm honest but would add some bs for the comical aspect, on a thai forum that would typically revolve around ladyboys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
