But be aware, pretending to be something you are not is not the point. It is not about pretending to be someone different, but being yourself, without fear of what others will say. Fears and shames must not interfere; we have to be honest with ourselves and with the rest.
I think a part of that hidden part of ourselves comes to light as soon as we drink alcohol or take drugs. That disinhibition not only makes us feel good and relaxed, but it can even show a side of us that unknown for ourselves, which proves that we can be great strangers.
The great challenge is to achieve that uninhibited state without the help of any substance, something that over the years seems more unattainable.
In the end, those of us who live in large cities and especially young people who constantly brag about what they have and do on social networks are more likely to wear a mask similar to the one next door and that prevents us from being as incredible as we can be.
Don't Be a Fool.... Don't Be Normal
