Honestly?

Exposing the real you, being vulnerable, honesty…

I found this song today, that talks about the freedom of exposing yourself to a friend and having them love you.  Love the actual you, without the masks we wear to hide ourselves.

I have a few friends that I feel loved enough to let down my walls, my guard, my mask, my protection and to just be me.  To just be.

When I became a parent, I struggled with feeling so alone.  Wanting everyone else to think I had everything together and not letting them know about the things I was struggling with.  Since then, I’ve learned how valuable friends are and if you let people inside your life, they encourage you, love you, and help you succeed.

When have you let someone know YOU?  How did it work out?
