"This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man."
~William Shakespeare, from Hamlet
I've been going to a lot of Shakespeare plays in vancouver since i've been home and the other night when i was watching hamlet, the above quote stuck out to me above anything else. It made me think again about who I am. I think that person is very different from the person I pretend to be... I'm not often true to my actual character and who I am and as a result I'm false to most men. I just want to be myself, but in order to do that, I have to first discover who that person really is.
