It�s interesting how much time we spend with ourselves, without getting acquainted with who we are. :)

People who are in the inner circle know me well – I am transparent. Most of the inner circle are, like me, introverted, and we communicate more by e-mail and message than by phone. When we get together we have a great time, but we are all people who value our time alone.

Those who are acquaintances think I am lively and social and well-connected. I am well-connected, but the lively and social part is pure training on my mother’s part. I can do it because she taught me well, but I pay a price. I can hardly wait to leave the event, whatever it is, and then I need a couple hours of silence to replenish my soul.

I am fairly self-contained. I am also generous to others. While I conceal some aspects of my life on my blog, pretty much what you see is the real me. I just have more facets than you see.

Interesting question! With advances in network engineering what they are, it’s incredibly difficult wearing a mask online even if you wanted to. In real face to face encounters with others you can, wearing a mask, fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all the time. When someone is able to look right through you it makes you feel so naked and foolish and I worry myself sick when I let my guard loose, which is most of the time. And it isn’t as if you are being a pseudo if you are required to wear a Venetian – sometimes it’s best that way, especially, when there are internal conflicts going on inside your head or you belong to a minority view in a very oppressive environment.

I don’t think I’m perceived as who I am because I seem to be told that I’m very snobbish and stuck up. It could be true, but I don’t believe so.

And I wear a mask in one case only; when I’m hurt.

Haider: DUDE! Ma etefaqna 3ala chethi lol

I think that even if somebody lacks confidence (and I go through that sometimes, when I have my off days), they’re supposed to feel like they should be closer to people with confidence.
When I’m going through some days where I’m just not me, I tend to pay more attention to confident people (even if they’re strangers, which is weird) hoping that it’d cheer me up, rub off on me a little like fairy dust, rather than avoid them and call them arrogant..

But that’s just my point of view :)

Deep, my friend.

It’s interesting how much time we spend with ourselves, without getting acquainted with who we are. :)

Even the people around us. We can have a one-dimensional view of them – or see them as noise in the background – without pausing for a moment to see them as human beings, with feelings, ambitions, concerns, insights, etc.

It feels great to connect with people on that level: Human to human, rather than simply face to face.

And Swair, sometimes confidence is interpreted as ghuroor (conceit, arrogance) by those who lack confidence and have low self-esteem. The emphasis here is on *sometimes.* You ARE maghroora! :P (only kidding!)

I’ve gotten a whole bunch of responses when I ask what people’s first impression of me was, but the one I got the most was that a LOT of people perceived me as “maghroora” and “shayfa nafsi” which is weird because I don’t think I am lol

Apparently, that’s how I seem at first (according to some people) and then when I open up, I’m different and I’m “me”, whatever that means lol

Fa yea, I’m maghroora to some people, just plain quiet to others and sometimes “mysterious” *rolls her eyes* which could mean anything!

I wear a mask… I don’t need to tell you who I am (really.)
