You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful — and then you actually talk to them and five minutes later they're as dull as a brick; but then there's other people. And you meet them and you think, "Not bad, they're okay," and when you get to know them ... their face just, sort of, becomes them, like their personality's written all over it, and they just — they turn into something so beautiful.
-Amy Pond (Doctor Who)
Definitely one of my favorite quotes, and it applies so well to life. You meet so many people in day to day interactions and sometimes they seem so amazing at first, but then you get to know them and it's like "Wow, what happened to you?" Other times, when you see someone you're not at all impressed, or intrigued, but as time passes their personality just comes out and shines more than anything else and it just becomes them. I guess that's just how it goes. I think that whole getting to know someone thing, is absolutely the best part and allows all of their characteristics to come out and you can finally get to know them on a better level and they become so much more.
I'm not the easiest person to get to know, because I often have issues opening up and showing myself more than maybe what a person wants to see. I think maybe this once, it's worth opening myself up more, letting those walls come down a bit. It's hard to leave oneself open to such vulnerabilities, but often it's for the best. I'm not even sure I know what I'm talking about anymore. I think it's just going around in circles, but eeehhhh. Seems like my average post.
