All the world’s a stage
And all the men and women merely players…
Exactly Shakespeare!!! We all are players, who started playing our game so very well and we were so engrossed in it that we forgot where and when to stop this act…. Daily we are so used to pleasing everyone around us- Parents, Teacher, Boss, Girl friend, and Friends that we forget what exactly would please “US”. Don’t blame yourself and no don’t blame anybody else either. We are scared that somebody else might take our place and for that not to happen we end up doing everything and anything. What if you turn deaf and don’t care about what people want from you and rather start working on what exactly you want, you know the result, you very well do; you wont be the darling of the world, somebody else will be there who was nobody’s yesterday but today he is everybody’s. And believe me there are a million and one people who are ready to knock you off your “throne”. The “throne” here can be anything- your job status, your boyfriend status, your best friend status, your teacher’s pet status. Who cares what pleases “you” except for you soul?? –None. Who cares what pleases your boss? –The whole world.
Its funny people say that I have changed, I am not the same, I am not the original me nowadays- tell me when was I the “ORIGINAL ME”. If it was the masquerade of student yesterday, It’s the masquerade of a “dumb” assistant to my boss today, and who knows what am wearing tomorrow- but for sure not the which show cases the true ME. by the time we realize how far we have come and for long have we been “ON THE STAGE” we would have forgotten our own identity, and even if want to get back into our skin it would be super tough to even know which is OUR skin owing to the fact that we have worn so many skins all our life. In the desperation to be number one we play the game so very well that when we want drop out of it we can’t, in fact the world won’t let you drop out so easily.
We fake it in and out, day and night, we fake it while we eat, we fake it when we talk, we fake it when we dress, In fact the world around forces you to fake it. Maybe be we can fake it fool the whole world with our acting credentials but there is one person whom you have to face without the MASK with your face- YOU!!!

i loved the way you compared those lines written by shakespeare to the way we live our lives...living for some body else and not US...fooling around with our own selves!!! Lovely...!!! :):):)
Its interesting how you have woven the struggle between the materialistic and the spiritual life. The phrase "Who cares what pleases “you” except for you soul?? –None" is very thought provoking.It takes a immense layer of understanding to know that we need to evolve for our soul.It was a pleasure reading your blog.
