I'm just sayin'...

Truth: You will never be all things to all people. You will never even be all things to the people you know. Not even to the people you want to impress. Not even to the ones you love. You won't ever please everyone.

Advice: Don't even try to.

Trying to stay off everyone's radar, or trying to make everyone happy, or trying to please everyone, will only keep you from developing into your genuine self. 

Try. Fail. People will get hurt in the process. You will get hurt even more. You might discover your limitations only when you realize how much your power to hurt others hurts you in return.

But this is better than attempting to stay on everyone's good side. Choose. Or you will turn into something you're not. You will come off as something you're not. You might never figure out WHAT you are.

You will figure out when you've gone too far. Some will help you figure this out. They will let you know. Keep them. Is it possible some will never tell you? Will never forgive you? Definitely. But that will be for them to carry, not you. You can't change how they haul their past or what they choose to take from it with them or for how long. Forgive yourself, face your actions and move on. Decide that you can keep looking at yourself in the mirror because you have to be ok with yourself. You're the only one you have to carry for a lifetime.

Time does not stagnate. Make peace with your mistakes and let time take them away.
