I see that the more i pretend, the more the situation is false and perceived as is. Of course, my job isn`t about being self-confident and powerful looking, it is about being helpful and human, present and poeple loving, all things that come pretty naturally. If I had to pretend to be something else, i would fail, I would lose my position maybe, but then, I would derive relief to be with myself as myself, no matter how chaotic it can be. I`ve often notice how poeple can carry several different masks according to what other masks they uncounter. When there is no masks in front of them, they get into panic mood, or they just relax, feel the flow of beingness. Patricia > > > > Tired of spam?
