my shadow

Often your shadow contains what's obvious about you to everyone except you

Other people can always see your shadow. And other people showed me mine. My shadow is voracious, compartmentalized, judgmental, opportunistic, controlling, and afraid of rejection. Whereas my more legible self (more “lovable,” in my eyes) is idealistic, warm, wholehearted, loyal, explorative, appreciative and accepting.
