the masquerade

i saw this video and it reminded me soo much of real life. people put on these masks EVERYDAY trying to seem like they are happy with their life. the monotony of a life w. responsibilities & undesirable jobs takes its toll on people. but, people continue to put a fake smile on when inside alot of people arent really happy. In the video he does of good job of demonstrating how the main cartoon finally takes off his mask to show all the other people that hes not really happy on the inside & it turns out that they arent either. but when the others see that he saw their unhappiness they quickly put their fake masks back on. this happens in real life all the time. people subdue their real feelings in order to appear normal to the rest of the world. but at what point is it enough? at what point do people finally become real w. themselves?
