*the most ancient reason there is. we do things in order to gain approval or avoid judgement. we will wear masks to hide our faces, thoughts, and personalities, to shield that which we think will be judged, in order to gain acceptance. we will do things, say things, and even be things to gain approval, even if we disapprove of it.   we are the fake at generation, ruled by fear and raised to be rebels. my mask is a ***** who over estimates herself and doesn't care about others and never gets scared. But how long can one stay in character, before they become the character... and aren't they one in the same... the best lies are based on the most truth. therefore the masks we wear and the facades we create that earn us the approval and exile us from judgement, are the most believeable lies, which shows that the character, scriptwriter and actor are all the same. so just how fake are we...?*
