Have you ever felt like you were trapped in your own mind?
I know, I know, it sounds like the premise for some cheesy horror flick, but I promise you that's not what I'm getting at.
I don't know if it's the fact that I'm constantly thinking as if I'm writing or if maybe I'm just really weird (ha), but I feel like I'm always stuck in my own thoughts. And as a result I have a tendency to constantly over-think things, to the point where I feel like the way I perceive my own actions and the actions of others it drastically different than the way other people perceive those things.
Every once in a while I get this image of myself sitting, looking through a window out into the world, and anyone passing by who happens to look in doesn't quite see enough to really understand who I am. And I wonder--perhaps more often than I should-- how other people see me. I wish one of these days someone would just come out and tell me.
On another note, I've decided to stop trying so hard.
