Running Away...

Every so often, I find myself running away. From the person I was. Am. Could be. Sometimes it's fun to be someone else. Someone completely different to you. That's why I love performing. On stage, you can be whoever you want to be. You can convince the audience that you're someone else. You even convice yourself sometimes.

How great it would be to be someone else, even if just for a short while. To think how they think, to act how they act, to feel everything they would feel. You shed your own mask and put on the mask of someone else. Sometimes the mask becomes permanently yours and sometimes it comes off. Either way, you get a different perspective on life, on how things work from someone else's point of view. Which can't be a bad thing.
