We carry masks upon us.
It can be due to our religion, upbringing, and teachings via our family values. As we grow old, the layer increases as per our experience and learnings.
Have you seen a little child?
Do they care about others?
Are they not naked and breakfree?
How much do societal dogmas matter to them? What to wear, how to talk, and how to behave?
The masks we cover have made us animals. We act nicely and behave correctly. In many cases, against our will. As a result, we live in confusion between self and how we represent ourselves towards others.
