We're all actors in a play

  • Life is random, sometimes we’re lucky, and sometimes we’re not, some were born rich, some poor, some chose science, and some didn’t have a choice. We’re not the ones who decide, and most of the time, we are not in control. But in any case, we have to excel at whatever our role may be.

  • Society expects us to act in a certain way, and sometimes to survive socially, we behave phony and inauthentic. Some of us show the biggest smiles even when we don’t feel like it. This deception is the only way our community works.

  • We’re all actors, and in this show, you are the producer, and you are the only audience. It’s your role to play your strengths and make the ‘show’ better. Do your best!

But that’s just my take. Comment and share yours.
