Perception

There's what I think of me and what you think of me.
My perception. Your perception.

I like to think that mine is correct but there are times I truly hope I'm wrong.

I'm not sure if it's a coincidence or if I'm just taking more time to truly listen but I've heard from a few people on how they see me. Not that I've asked them point blank (heaven knows it would bring me to tears if everyone was straight up crazy honest), but in passing. Words. Thoughts.

It makes me wonder how the rest of my acquaintances, friends, family see me... Am I ok with their perception? Do I think it's accurate? And if it's not... how have my actions and words influenced that perception?
