Critical Reflection time. THINK BOUT IT.

Today's blog is to do a critical reflection of the theme of alternate identity and personal space. Alternate identity is an entity that actually seems to be very common in this day and age of social networking and even social systems.  It seems as though a lot of people have a vision in their head of how they want to be perceived by other people and take measures in their daily lives to ensure this appearance or facade. Like with clothing, makeup, or even attitude.  I think attitude and personality are the two most affected.  When someone creates a facade for themselves, they create a facade for their entire lives that blocks them from growing as a true individual and learning about themselves.  This is an issue I am starting to explore and learn more about.  I want to be in touch with my inner self, ideals, morals, attitude all of that and really understand what I am about before I dedicate myself to anyone in a relationship or anything like that.  Anyways, personal space is another issue.  I find some people are super concerned with keeping their personal space private and intimate.  Through my time exploring these people's personas I have found hidden and repressed feelings.  I think it is truly important to know one's true identity and the limits of one's own personal space.  Everyone is different.  But I do not think it is a bad thing to let people you love and trust into your personal space.  And by personal space here I mean thought ideas the mind and spirit.
