Which "Me"

Sometimes I struggle with my self image. I worry about what people will think about. I ponder on what I can do to improve me. I obsess over what I see as my faults, the parts that make me feel inadequate. I focus on the outward version of me.
The outward "Me"
But that is only a small fraction of who we are!!! Have you ever had a day where you were truly you? A day that you did everything the way that comes naturally, without worrying about how you appear to others? A day where you "Let your Freak Flag fly"? Now think back to that day, and think how it felt. Did you feel Confidence? Did you feel Happy? Did you feel at Peace? Did you feel Hopeful for your future? 

I refere to that type of day as a day where your "true self" or "inner self" was showing through with Confidence! 

Whenever I try to wrap my head around who my true self is, I don't think of an echo of my outerself, but I see it as more of an abstract thing. A collection of what makes me ME!!!
A version of the true me.
When we acknowledge who our true self is, we will be more content with our outward self. When we view our inner self, we see potential. My goal is to reach a point where I can see my outward person, and see past my faults and failures, and instead see Strength, Passion, Drive, and Purpose. What do you want to see when you look in the mirror?
