A moment of confusion...

This won't make sense to most, but I've been toying with some interesting revelations lately. I enjoy people watching. (Not in a perverse sense, but in a curious, "What are they doing, thinking and feeling?" sense.) I've made the following observations:

1. People say they are not worried about others' perceptions of them, but they stand around constantly tugging at their skirt hem and readjusting their hair. They look around to see if anyone has noticed, and when it appears as if no one has, they continue readjusting themselves. People, essentially, are insecure.
2. Very few people let you in on what's in their heart. They are constantly showing an outward appearance and facade. Maybe they paste on a smile because they want everyone to imagine they are happy. Or they flirt when no one is looking because they enjoy the thrill. (And, essentially, are insecure.) They lie.
3. People struggle with making good decisions and instead make impulsive decisions that provide immediate gratification. Children do this, which makes me wonder if these same people were never shown consequences for their actions, and have now turned into adults who cannot make adult decisions.

This doesn't necessarily apply to everyone. I'm certain that some will read this and wonder if they are the person I was watching. Essentially, people are insecure. We struggle to ultimately give our lives over to God and have faith that through prayer we can/will make good and better decisions for our lives. Our outward appearance will mirror our inward beliefs and thoughts.
