Do I know you?

We trust a person when we think we know a person….but have you ever wondered, if you really know that person? When you think you really know a person, do you ever wonder “Is what I know just a small part of that person’s life? Or is it all that I have to know?” how do you come to a conclusion. There is no way to find a conclusion. All that you can do, is to trust your instincts and hope that what you think is right….
Why I think of this….let me explain…people often think they know all about a person …they think they know the person’s character, their habits and even what the person takes for food…but that isn’t true in most of the cases….
For example, a person in office thinks I don’t take rice at all. You know why? Because I hardly bring rice to office….my staple meal in office is cereals or oats….so, am known as someone who doesn’t eat rice…that is in spite of my protests….they think I am dieting….only I know how far is dieting from me…I have no proper diet…I eat what I like, when I like, as much as I like….
At home, my dad says, am a quiet girl…my friends in MSc class say the same thing….but you ask my friends in office…they would give a different picture…they would say am a smiley, a person who can joke and laugh a lot….mind you, even this you would get only from my friends….colleagues would say am a quiet person…
Now, they are just examples….here, you have one person…at times I feel like talking and other times I feel like keeping my mouth shut…but depending on what they see, people have a picture of me in their mind…and they think they know me….But they don’t…
There are times when I wonder if I really know about a person….i am always aware that it is highly possible for me to know just a wee bit about a person, even if I spend years with him or her….
We think we know a person and that is exactly what it is…it is just a “thought”….no one would ever know if you really know someone….
