How do you portray yourself?

 
I am constantly at war, words vs thoughts. Everything makes sense in my mind but presenting it openly is a battle I constantly fight.
Things use to be so much easier for me; odd isn't it. They say wisdom comes with age, but so not true for me ;). Maybe it is lack of challenging my mind the way I need to.
There is probably many reasons for my lack of knowledge. I wish sometimes that things would stick better. Maybe the way I was made is to be a challenger. Not to be competitive with others but with myself.  

I love imagination, how it works, how fact differs from fiction, what the mind comes up with on its own. I would rather live in a fantasy then in reality. Many do, right? Could it be that I have not grown up? Or will I always be this way? So many questions with no right answers!
Isn't it imagination and dreams that have been turned into reality what has made this world so much more productive/successful/easy etc.?!
I may not be the smartest or prettiest person but I am a great dreamer with a great imagination. I love un-explainable things, stories, the beauty of the universe, the way a childs mind works, and great values that different people obtain. 
Everyone has different views/opinions. I like to hear both sides. I am not good at picking sides or making decisions (good and bad trait). Good because there is always two sides to every story, there are different ways to do things, opinions are great (but some that should not be expressed because of common courtesy). bad because there are times when you have to make hard decisions. 
My mind is all over the place, I am not sure what I believe or don't exactly. Everyone is so different (no two people are the same). So I ask you this who are you? What do you believe? How do you portray yourself? Can you look at another person and put yourself in their shoes before judging? If you had to draw a picture to express who you are what would you draw?
I would draw a circle with every color imaginable inside. Circle defining love that is never ending for my family and friends. Colors for the imagination and different kind of person I am. 
Kind of a lame post to ramble about, but expressing my different thoughts in words is somehow calming.

I loved this post! I think after High School is when we really start to doubt because, Now we don't have all the friends and bullies there to compliment or put us down and were so use to letting what someone else say define who we are, that out of High school we get confused because none of that goes on. After High School is where we truly have to find ourself and find out who are. Thats why it can be hard for a while.

But your doing the right thing Danielle. Your finding out who you are, and with each passing day you will be more comfortable and have all this knowledge you think you lack (which you don't)

Good Post. Been there. We all have !
