“You’ll never know who you are unless you shed who you pretend to be.” ―Vironika Tugaleva

We human beings are pretty strange creatures―going through much of our lives trying to show up in the ways we believe others want us to. This seems to be a very wide-spread condition; one might even call it an epidemic. We all seem to behave this way for a good part of our lives―many of us for our entire lives―all the while wishing that people would experience us for who we really are.
