How Naked is Naked…
June 28, 2007 2:14 pmHow would you feel if you were naked in front of the world?
I am not talking about shedding your clothes… Naked so that the world can see into your soul. Taking away all the masks, all the doubts and blatantly being measured for your choices and opinions.
It might sound ironic but most people spend most of their lives trying to be like someone else. Maybe its a mentor or an idol they try to emulate, maybe they just want to impress someone, maybe they just want to be a part of something. Everybody wears masks, there are no exceptions… Mostly its involuntary, it has somehow crept into our system and has become a part of us.
Most people think its hard to be like someone else… actually that is the easy thing to do. Its not hard to look at someone and try to do things like they do. What is truly hard is to be yourself. That is why I love originality. People who know who they are, people who understand thier flaws and stengths… they look at the mirror and see past all the masks for who they truly are and are not scared to show that to the world! There are very few people who I know to be truly original but I do know loads of people who look to be in the path of originality…
So, how naked is naked? I know it does not sound comfortable… But what if you want to be naked? What if you want to the world to see you for what you are? What then?

well, just as there would be a lot of people you would rather see clothed
….there would be a lot of people who are actually more acceptable or beautiful when not ‘naked’…
well, of course i agree with ur pt of view…am just trying to see from the ‘other side’
just as you would like someone to be have brushed his teeth and looking clean rather than smelling of last week’s chappathis
….i guess each of us unknowingly appreciate each others ‘good masks’
