We can all put on our best behavior when we know someone’s watching us but what about the rest of the time? What about those unguarded moments when we think no one is watching? That’s when our true character shows.

Are we living a double life? Are we being real? There’s an element of truth that we all put our best foot forward at times but is our best foot that much better? Are we being real or fake? Are we trying to present ourselves as something we aren’t?

These musings are not meant to condemn but to get us to reflect on what’s really deep inside. What do other people see when we think no one is looking? How do we become or continue to be the person we are publicly?

It’s all food for thought. Without thinking we will never plan. Without a plan we will never change. Reflective thought can sometimes be painful but it is the springboard to change.
