Masquerade | Akbar&Fahmad


These days you don't have to look far to realize that the world is becoming something that it isn't. People are being genuinely fake, and the funny part of it is that they don't see it as something being wrong. They think it is normal to be fake, it is proper because there are so many others that are fake. They have been around it their whole life so it is hard to break the chain. They walk around with a mask on trying to be someone they aren't and they pass with it. They live life as a fake as a played out character.
I remember studying character's in Drama class, There were two types regular characters and then true characters. A regular character is what you usually see from a person, what is on the surface the simple things. The things that you notice quickly like; how they walk and what their personality is like. True characters are the ones that we hardly see, they are the characters that are hidden in many cases. The only way to see true character is by putting pressure on the character. You need to put the character in a stressful situation to get the true character.
One day we will all take off our masks and not care what others think, show our true selves. Show what we have always been longing to show. We will show our true characters and be proud of it. But for everyone's sake lets hope that time comes quickly or creativity is being threatened.
