Facets
When I am with Friend A, I am conservative and a bit reserved. With Friend B I am attractive and sexy. With Friend C I am playful, maybe a bit bawdy and naughty. With Friend D I am smart. Which is the Real V? All of them of course, so why do I seem to be different people? Am I just acting a part for each of them depending on what they want of me? I don't think that's the case. I believe it's about the facets. We are all made of so many different facets and there is a time for each one to be viewed. Friend A is laid back, therefore that side of me is dominant in her presence, and do on down the list.
I believe that anyone who says they are the same all the time is deluding themselves. Who we are at any given moment is influenced by many things. How we feel at the time, where we are, who we are with. Why shouldn't we enjoy all the parts of ourselves? Some of our facets maybe destructive or harmful ...those we can try to put on the bottom but must I bury the playful part of me? The occasional waspish part of me? I don't think so. There is a time and a place for all the 'facets' of V.....let 'em shine!

Well friend E says shine on! You are all of those things and more. Enjoy yourself in every moment and aspect.
We have to spend so much time with ourselves. In fact, we have to spend EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF OUR ENTIRE LIVES, ASLEEP OR AWAKE,WITH OURSELVES. How incredibly boring would it be if the self we had to spend all that time with always the same?
E----you are biased cos you love me!
Tomjay----That is SO true, and if the parts are likeable and enjoyable, why the heck shouldn't we enjoy?
