Do we really change, or do we just get better at hiding who we are?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot. People say time changes you, but I feel like the core of who I am is still the same. I’ve just learned which parts to show to whom. Do you think people genuinely change over time, or do we just adapt to different situations? Curious to hear your perspectives.

The older I get, the less I care about shielding others from what they're old enough to suck it up and deal with. I'm doing the same in terms of everyone else and their life choices, so I feel they can and should return the favor.

I'm not bothering anyone therefore they can mind their business and keep their opinions to themselves or someone who isn't me.🤷🏾‍♀
