We think that we know someone , but the truth is that we only know the version of them they have chosen to show us . We may hear rumours about a person and believe , the things to be true .We may one day meet that person and feel foolish for believing the baseless gossip.

This is the first generation that will be able to look back on their entire life story documented in pictures on the internet, and together we will all discover the after effects of that. Ultimately ,we post photos online to curate what stranger think of us .But then we wake up , look in the mirror at our faces and see the cracks and scars and blemishes and cringe. We hope someday we will meet someone who will see that same morning face and instead see their future . their partner , their forever. Someone who will still choose us even when they see all of the sides of the story , all the angles of the kaleidoscope thai is you.

Instead our need to simplify and generalize absolutely ,everyone and everything in this life ,humans are intrinsically impossible to simplify. We are never just good or just bad .We are all the mixtures of our selfishness and generosity, loyality and self preservation and impulsiveness .

Let me say it again , louder.....
We think we know someone ,but the truth is that we only know the version of them that they have choosen to show us .

" So, Never judge a book by its cover... "
