Is it possible for me to consume media but still know who I am afterwards?
Must I be changed by it all?
Maybe that is the mark of good art,
Or maybe my identity is just not clear to me yet?
I watch a good movie and my personality alters. Slightly. For a little while
I listen to good music and I carry myself a little differently. Taller or bent in on myself. Also for a little while.
I read a good book and I think of myself and my world a little differently.
I look at art and my dreams change ever so slightly. The future seems brighter or maybe more bleak.
It’s all an experience of sorts.
Its kind of like an experiment as well.
Trying on different personas and masks to see which one fits most comfortably on the face I think is not good enough to be exposed to the public.
I value authenticity, I really do but sometimes I feel my authentic self is not authentic in the right way.
It is not relatable.
I want to show the world who I am but as long as I can carefully craft that expression into what will be best received.
Does it make me fake or human?
To want to be seen, to want to be known but with the guarantee of being loved.
I think it's mostly the ending for me...wowww
Brilliant work boo
now i need to go sit on my bedroom floor and think
