I can't remember who it was that coined the question, "Who are you when no one is looking?" This question calls us to consider our behaviors when no one is looking as the true indicator of our character. I'd like to rephrase that in the form of another question - "Who are you when you are really looking?" Asking who we are when no one is looking, presumes that we are willing to look at ourselves honestly. When we do this, it is an indicator of our true nature. I have taken a hard and honest look at myself and I don't like what I see. But is this a bad thing?
Below is my conclusion about myself and I believe it can be extrapolated to all of humanity. Tell me what you think it means, if you agree and what the implications might be.
"If left to the discovery of the base of who I am,
It will lead to the bane of my existence,
And leave me irrovocably rebellious against God,
With a chronic restless and unrepentant heart."
