what even, you think.
Yes, well, i think back, we don't change so we can be different. We change so that we can remain the same.
When i was m*****a; i was an illusion. An act. A disfigured clay model. People would try to make me them, apparently they {presumably}, didn't know that there were other people like that, who they were forcing to become me.
I don't want to be them.
They tried to make the ostrich fly; and look what happened. The eagle became an endangered species.
{I know right, how stoopid}
People treated and believed m******a as the m******a they wanted to see, and talk about. It made me fear closed and crowded spaces, even though I'm not in the least claustrophobic.
I wanted to remain me, and not a portrait of me.
And you won't believe how simple it was to change.
