it’s so hard when people assume that you’re “bigger” than who you really are; and honestly, it freakin’ hurts.

others may consider it as some form of flattery but personally, i really hate it ‘coz you (your own self) above all else knows the truth; and truth hurts. it hurts when others think that you’re this some kind of person on a pedestal who has everything, yet deep inside you’re emptier than a well that has been dried and forgotten for decades. it’s so hard ‘coz at times, you have to live up to the person that they ‘painted’ you to be; then you get tired of being that ‘somebody’. and you revert to your real, old self, then you become a disappointment. they blame their disillusionment on you when in the first place, you never said that you’re that ‘saint’.
