Stay you, Be you, not become you

Shot with NOMO INS W.

You heard a lot people saying “oh be yourself is so cool”, “oh I want to be myself” blah blah blah…

The very funny truth is, who else can you be?

I think what people is trying is to become the ideal one that they want to be, they believe the ideal one is the real “me”, not the one I am being right now.

The thought,

“Stay you, be you, not become you”

台灣人大概是我認知中,最愛把「做自己」掛嘴邊的國家,但我百思不解的是,不做自己,你能做誰啊?

很多人看到電視上大聲說出內心裡的話的藝人什麼的,就會狂留言,「做自己就是帥!」「做自己最棒!」…等等超多可以舉例的。

每次看到我就在想,啊不然說出心裡話是有多難? 更何況,選擇不說內心話而說假掰的話的你,也還是你啊?! 就只是個假掰的你而已。

所以「做自己」這句話,在台灣社會中,真的聽起來很蠢又很諷刺,表示這個社會的風氣是讓大家愈來愈假掰,所以做自己才會變成多數人內心的一個出口。
