I am not an open book. Open books tell you absolutely everything that is going on in their life. There is no doubt about each specific detail, event, emotion, and thought coming up in life, or presently felt. Sometimes you start reading, but zone out and close your mind to the details because they just come too many, too quickly. Information overload. Your own thoughts require your attention, or someone else says something that piques your interest, and you notice you are no longer listening.
No, I am a closed book. Sometimes you can see through the cover... see that my eyes give it all away, and know that something is amiss... but even with this transparency, it isn't so easy to know. You don't know the details of what is going on inside this complex inner world I live in. Sometimes you can read between the lines, you can ask questions to know more. But not all knowledge is openly put on the table. You can always read, always ask, there is rarely anything held back. But sometimes just a quick read isn't enough. Usually there's more. You may need to take a closer look- I appreciate those who do.
