We say: "not mine" - it means: "feelings have passed."
We think: “I finally understood the truth,” which means that a new stage has begun.
We say: "appearance is not the main thing, the inner world is important", forgetting that we perceive the inner world through external manifestations. Forgetting that a completely unattractive appearance for us would repel, not even allowing us to listen to the inner world. Voice, manners, style of speech - also appearance.
We convince ourselves that age is not important. But we desperately hold on to youth, contrary to our conviction, simply because every day we live brings us closer to the end.
We are constantly lying to ourselves. Much more than others.
