Inspired Writing

Imagine, for a moment, that there exist in the world thousands of you. Within the depths of the minds of many individuals of this world, exist interpretations of who you are as an individual. Some of these may be ill-informed, such as a person you may have met while having a bad day. Yet those thoughts of those closest to us can interpret most correctly who we are as people. Parents, family, and close friends, all have a very good view of the type of person that we have allowed ourselves to become by being shaped by the world, environment, and people around us. We exist in their minds as a person which may or may not be what we view ourselves as. We may exist in the minds of some as compassionate and patient, and in others as ruthless, yet decisive. These interpretations that hundreds and thousands of people hold of us are important in defining who we are as an individual.

At the same time, we exist as individuals within the minds of those who exist within us. Simply put, we influence others by how they analyze our Selves within them, and at the same time, they have a Self which exists within our own minds. If we can study the mind of a person based on what perceptions we have gathered from them, then our minds are essentially able to in a sense exist within that person. In a way, others' views and interpretations of our Selves are all united and tied together, as a collective figment of the type of person we embody. How we carry ourselves in the world, and how we allow ourselves to be seen, is important, because each and every day you are sharing yourself with greater forces, which shape who you are in respects to the environment, to others, and most importantly, to yourself.

Finding which of these interpretations is the True You is a task which involves synthesizing all of the collective figments which exist in the world, and analyzing that data within your own Self, in an attempt to locate what it is that you truly wish for the most. Within your Self there exists many different Selves which are independently capable of obtaining the Truth depending on their varying perceptions. Any faults that exist within you that you wish you could remedy, are able to be cured with that knowledge. Locating these is often times a taxing endeavor, and it is imperative to fully realize the importance of coming to terms with the type of person that you truly are, in combination with the type of person you portray yourself to be. If you do not stay True to your Self, and you do not portray to the environment and to the world populace the specific variety of individual you wish to be, then you shall never fully realize your greatest dreams, wishes, and happiness.

You are never anything but yourself, and that is always enough. You are never completely alone, as long as the ability to realize your multiple Selves exists. Your struggles will never be in vain, and your life will never lose meaning, so long as you hold this vital aspect of life in the highest regard. Love of your surroundings, love of others, and love of yourself, and the pursuit of which Self you project upon the world is the True One, and which are fake, are all things which will eventually lead to your ability to create a world in which the greatest rewards are always at the tips of your fingers.
