| ## MY STORY
I used to live behind a mask to feel a sense of safety, I was afraid to be true to myself. years of living a lie took there toll, i was no longer comfortable in my own skin.....losing touch with who i really was. it was almost as if the mask began to fuse itself onto my face and i knew i needed to find a way to some clarity.
there was a moment in my life when i had just turned 16, i sat myself in front of my mirror and started at my reflection for what seemed like an eternity. i pried that ugly, cold, parasitic mask off my face and took a good long look at my inner self. a million thoughts raced through my mind and its then i realized....i would never truly be happy if i was living an act 24/7.
fast forward to now, i still have my Mask....but ive traded it in for one made of glitter, feathers, precious jewels and silk ribbons, a think of beauty easily removed to show reveal something even more beautiful that resides just beneath. i know how to use my mask to my benefit now, while staying true to who i really am.
> the most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. you trade in your reality for a role. you trade in your sense for an act. you give up your ability to feel and in exchange, put on a mask. there cant be ang large scale revolution until there is a personal revolution on an individual level. its got to happen inside first"
Jim Morrison.
