ARE YOU LIVING IN PRETENCE ?
When you CHANGE - Its the MASK that FALLS OFF !
Why do people live in PRETENCE ?
Answer : To be Accepted by the Society !
Who are you really trying to win over ? Who are you hoping will accept you ?
Living in pretence can only create DEPRESSION as you are in a CONSTANT PRESSURE TO BECOME WHO YOU ARE NOT !
Society imposes a heavy burden on how our IMAGE and TITLE should confirm to the PREDETERMINED STANDARD ! Most people go out of their way to present an APPEALING IMAGE/TITLE to the SOCIETY !
The focus is on maintaining an EXTERNAL IMAGE - TITLE that aligns with how they wish to be perceived by the world. Now this is the PROBLEM !
I can identify numerous women who remained in long term relationships for 15 years with their husband primarily for Economic Reasons, driven by societal expectations regarding their status.
The Society has given them a Title - Divine Wife ; However, when confronted with their reflection in MIRROR ; they dont escape the realization that society's title often reduced them to a status that felt akin to derogatory terms like prostitute.
Tell me the TITLE that MIRROR gave you ; Forget about the TITLE which SOCIETY has given you !
You cant PRETEND all the time ! So you Quit the 10-15 year old RELATIONSHIP !
We are so desperate to get accepted by SOCIETY that in the process we lose our REAL SELF.
Once again you Reject SELF - only to be accepted by the SOCIETY !
Inability to ACCEPT SELF will result in LACK OF SELF - WORTH and SELF-VALUE
Remember - Buying a HOME cannot be a REMEDY to LACK OF SELF WORTH
Buying a CAR cannot be a REMEDY to LACK OF SELF VALUE
Fake Mask we put on will only ATTRACT FAKE PEOPLE ! Everything around you will become FAKE if you are NOT TRUE to yourself.
Skin with a Storm - When you remove the FAKE MASK you will realise that - The MAGIC you are looking for was in the work you are avoiding !
This is the MAGIC !
Jadoo !
As long as the REFLECTION in the MIRROR bestows upon me a DIVINE TITLE - I give a damn about the TITLE society gives me.
Happy Valentine Week to the narrator of the Story - The Story Teller !
