reflection

I’m here at the office, feeling so sleepy and not in the mood to fix my files. I tried to do some stuff and make myself busy but to no avail. Then, I decided to listen some music stored in my phone. I was listening to the song Reflection by Cristina Aguilera when suddenly I felt sad. Sometimes, we are once like this girl in the song pretending to be someone else in front of many people, making them believe that it is who we are but honestly we’re not! We are always afraid to show who we really are, afraid what people may think of you when you show what you think and feel. Afraid that they will not understand and accept you as you. Sometimes, we are pretending that were fine and happy in front of them but when the time comes that you’re all alone by yourself, you will then feel your loneliness, fear and insecurities. When will be the time that you don’t care anymore what people may think of you and that you can do whatever you want to do.

Here's the song...

♫ ♪ ♫ REFLECTION BY CRISTINA AGUILERA ♫ ♪ ♫

look at me
you may think you see who I really am
But you'll never know me
ev'ry day it's as if I play a part
Now I see if i wear a mask I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me
when will my reflection show who I am inside

I am now in a world where i have to hide my heart
and what I believe in
But somehow I will show the world what's inside my heart
and be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me
why is my reflection someone I don't know
Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside

there's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with the need to know the reason why
Why must we all conceal what we think how we feel
Must there be a secret me i'm forced to hide

I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time
when will my reflection show who I am inside
When will my reflection show who I am inside
