The Dangers of Wearing Masks and Playing Roles in Life

Wearing a mask or playing a role in life may start with positive intentions like summoning courage or trying something new, but if continued for too long, it can lead to disconnection from one's true self. The longer one wears a mask, the greater the risk of feeling disconnected from genuine experiences and emotions, leading to a sense of loneliness even in the midst of seeming success. This disconnection can result in feeling unfulfilled, as any achievements or validations obtained while wearing a mask do not truly belong to the real self.
