Question #2

My last post made me wonder what is in this world that we are so afraid to bring out our true selves?
I mean,earlier it was odd for somebody to try to fake things out!
It was rare to find somebody who wasn't being himself.. but today,it is really very rare to find somebody who isn't being a pokerface..
What caused this?
Now if we see somebody who fearlessly shows who he his,even if he is a mean fellow.. we admire that person..
We feel that it would be so nice if even we could be that open to people.. but this just remains as thoughts!
We never really implement it..why?
Are we so scared to show people who we are?
We can't be that bad that we need to hide ourselves under some disguise..
And on top of that,we want people to uncover our masks and say to us,"Boo! I gotta ya!"
That is not gonna happen!
And even if it was to happen,why hide?
I really doubt if its social skills or something..
Society does not tell you to become or show something that you are not..
Then why be that way?
Why choose a path and then think about returning throughout the time we walk on it?
Isn't it just easier and much more peaceful to do what we actually would have done?
I admit it's not always possible to be that blunt.. at times we do have to stop ourselves because we just might hurt somebody..
But why all the time?
Why don't we realise that in the course of not hurting others.. we are hurting ourselves and slowly even losing ourselves..
At the end.. is it worth it?
