I seldom have to put on an act on purpose. But I will if it’s me or them.
Mostly I just am/act however I need to to get by. I have to act like a good business person, for instance. I have to act like I care that my insane “friend” might have something to offer the world so she doesn’t go whacko in the group I’m in. I have to act like I give a shit about getting up in the morning.
The things I really care about, lord, they’re worse.
But I don’t know who I really am beneath all the having to do things to get by. The only things I see there are the pain and fear and stuff.
Ya, I’m nuts.
