Not Actualized Enough Yet

She lived her truth Not second guessing herself Until someone she admired said the wrong thing Was she arrogant or assertive? Confident or convoluted? She tried to be herself again But retaining her truth was more difficult She was never again one hundred percent Sad that she did not realize the person she admired had said the wrong thing Guess the truth was she was not actualized enough ………………yet.

I'm not sure I understood this poem, Caren. But, I do think one incident of "saying the wrong thing" can really destroy a relationship. Sadly, too.
