Frame_01: We Are What We Pretend To Be

“ We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful what we pretend to be ” - Kurt Vonnegut

Often, we wear emotional masks. These can be either empowering or self destructive.

If they align with who we really are, then they enable us to grow into the kind of person we hope to be. However, if we hide behind these masks because we are afraid to show who we really are, this leads to an inauthentic life. As comedian and actress Fanny Brice explained, “Let the world know you as you are, not as you think you should be because sooner or later, if you are posing, you will forget the pose, and then where are you?”

“ Everything in our lives get cheated when we choose to hide behind our masks.”
