Veil of Veracity

So, if Evangeline and her perpetual truth were to grace the pages of a social network, it would take merely the glance of two sentences (by those who know her true identity) to realise who she really is.  I fear writer hereof may not quite ready for such stripped exposure.
Removing myself from the third person, I have to admit I have long pondered the possible repercussions of such exposure, no doubt some of those able to identify certain of their own characteristics within the protagonists I have presented,  will be  somewhat “peeved” to say the least. It is not my intention to hurt anyone on my path, but I, at the risk on coming across as a little callous, cannot always consider the feelings of others before my own. 
So, should this blog ever be acquainted with other, more often visited parts of the internet realm, I will have to simply take things as they come. Perhaps I think too much of my little “piece” and no one pays it any mind. This is probable. However, I cannot help but secretly hope for that NOT to be the case. I would quite like to spark the interest of a person or two along the way.
I am also open to criticism, I will of course use my discretion in determining whether said criticism is of a constructive nature, or not…
Even those of you who are merely breezing through this will now be thinking that I am not who I say I am. Which may lead one to think; “How can she call her blog ALWAYS IN TRUTH and not even use her own name?”  Should that thought be flashing through your mind, I will not begrudge you.  Although, to be fair, the names are the only falsehood I present you with.  Each scenario of which I speak is true and not adapted in any way. 

When you read things from now on, don’t mentally harp on the fact that I actually go by another name, tis merely an emotional shield at this tender stage of my writing. I do intend on relinquishing myself from this nom de plume, in good time.  For now this slender shroud will leave me feeling safe enough to reveal the aching truths which lurk within me, belligerently trying to stay in the safe darkness they have become so accustomed to.  
Hmmm… got a little heavy there near the end! In all seriousness, I will at times reveal the darker truths within but this is something I do not wish to delve too deeply into as yet. For now, I will try keep it real- hoping that reality is more often sprightly in form and makes for an entertaining read.
