Fake or Real

This blog is not to offend anybody but to provoke a thought which might help you to be happy with yourself.

In this pretentious world what will you call real. In the times of plastic faces, fake eyelashes, fake nose, fake boobs there is a thin line between fake n real now.
In everyday life many of us pretend to be shy or quiet when in reality they want to shout out loud n give a piece of their mind to everybody. But just coz of the fear of being mocked or being lonely they choose the easy way, to fake "Being shy". Many people act a certain way to impress ppl around them, they start by giving compliments unnecessarily, being nice to them till they get wat they want.
Being socially acceptable is a basic need for all human beings. Well yeah we are supposed to be social animals after all.....But at what expense? We often hear things like... Don't do this what will people think about you, don't say that you are comin out too strong. Right from our parents we are forced to think about the society. The idea of your own social image is engraved in everybody's mind so much that their whole life revolves around pleasing the so called "society".
The fear of being socially neglected has reached a level where faking has become the real thing.
There are people who want to earn a lot of money not because they want to have a luxurious life but to outdo their friends, family or even neighbours.
There is a whole hoopla about "Be yourself". Yet people pretend in as small a stuff as, do u like my dress? I mean ohh common just say it you dont like it..... But they don't, just not to be in bad books.
Well in the oldest dating game.... According to the experts in this field it is said if a girl likes a guy, she should still pretend not to care or ignore him to make him chase you coz guys like the chase, they love the challenge.... Sweetheart the real challenge starts after you have the girl.....the real challenge is to fall in love with the same person over n over again. I wonder why this pretentious behaviour of hiding your feelings is loved n appreciated by many.
Why cant people just say things which they really mean, act as they really want to without getting bothered about their image in society. Society and image are two words which can sometimes complicate  many things. Dictionary definition of society is formal association of people withsimilar interests. Image is an iconic mental representation. Hence, whatever you do or say society will make its own mental representation about you depending on their own perspective.... So why worry!!!
 Every single person has an opinion about everything and anything in life..... Changing or tweaking your behaviour to be liked should not be an option.... But unfortunately that does happen.
So will ever be there a time when the real slim shady will stand up (i wonder if even eminem is really the way he portrays his image)
Talking of which faking an image by actors is still acceptable, probably thats wat they would have to do, to stay in the business. But for the common man, why fake it when you can just make it being YOU.
All you pretentious freaks ..... Dont be afraid to show the real you. Everybody has a good and bad side, nobody is perfect, stop worrying about people's opinion.  BE REAL
