oh, yes of course you need to for the people you live with. But go back and forth thinking why You need an image and not a reality that displays your own self. An image is what people are going see on the outside; good behaviors, great affection and smart character or the opposite. But the question is going to be : is your image your true inside reflection or is it what you think people want you to be?
This is a matter between you and the society. Some societies will allow you to be who you are, and some others will provoke another personality from you. Sometimes, they are not going to point fingers at you telling you what you should do or not, but you will feel unfitting and not belonging. The pressure of comparing yourself to others will deform you and reshape you into an image because all you want is belonging where you are. But let me tell you a secret to tell the whole world: You would better lose your society, instead of losing yourself.
This is how things go wrong everyday you try to be what you think the world wants you to be cause sometimes you are wrong: You are going to forget about what you love doing, what sets your soul on fire and you will become as cold as ice because you are losing your flame. You are going to try hard to make your teachers and parents happy, to fit in your squad. You are going to feed them happiness and your heart is going to starve from the lack of your own reality. And nothing will hurt you more than the moment you realize you can not even satisfy the ones you do those things for. You will feel your heart sinking in to death when you wonder if they do the same thing for you. The lies you walk yourself through will become as clear as the blue sky on a spring morning. Maybe being who you are no matter the difference could have made you a better person.
It gets harder when you never knew who you are and you have already lost the person you pretended to be. You become nothing. Take your time and learn yourself more than the Chemistry your teacher makes you swallow. It is a pity when you realize you know so much things at work and in class, but you know less about the person you are. Do not even dare to think of trying to construct another image, instead find the person inside of you that you will never lose again-you. Find yourself. think of what makes you feel alive and able. If you could do one thing all your life and never regret, what would you do? Dream infinitely. Find the purpose of your life and its meaning as whole. Do not wish to become someone else; wish to become a better you. Try to stay grateful for the little things life has offered you and at night think of what you want to learn and do if tomorrow would be your last day on Earth.
Live...
