The way you look, the way you behave, the way you perform- all of this is what shapes you. All of this is what defines you. Society is a barrier between the real you and surreal you; it influences one in reality and transforms them into a surreal self. To each individual pressured by society's norms, the societies guidelines, the society itself- be aware that it is filtering you. It is reshaping you- beyond belief, beyond doubt, beyond recognition. The real question, however, is whether it is ethical or not. Do you want to be manipulated? Do you want you be filtered? Do you want? Don’t let the fake shadows overlap your personality. We must learn to strip ourselves of the unnecessary layers in order to discover who we truly are. Break the obvious. Realism is the new you. Presenting yourself candidly to the world in todays times is a big achievement in itself. It reveals a disposition without a stamp, shows who you truly are. Filters in any form- facial or psychological- that are hindrances to your inner soul and may give the world a false illusion of you being someone else. People may perceive you differently, but being unfiltered is being in your skin. Comfortable, safe- you.
