When people seek to escape from themselves or hide behind masks of their true emotions and character, they often show a desire to escape from their nature. But they forget that any deep and real change begins with self-acceptance and understanding. Pretending to be different can be a quest for social acceptance and approval, but ultimately it is a form of self-deception. True strength and beauty lies in being real and authentic, accepting ourselves with all our qualities and flaws.

Incarnating into different personalities or hiding behind facades may bring us fleeting satisfaction, but on a long-term basis, it will not make us happy and fulfilled. The only way to achieve true happiness is by being true to ourselves, accepting ourselves as we are, and working towards our constant development and growth as individuals. So, sometimes it can be tempting to try to be something we're not, but true happiness and success lies in being true to ourselves and being openly honest with ourselves and others.
