Imagine yourself living in a world where everyone around you are just actors.
They are all pretenders. Nothing is real except yourself.
You are in a world where noone is real to you.

Your life is a play. The people around you are the actors.
You are yourself. They act according to a script. And the script revolves around your life. The script adapts itself according to your life.

Think. Is your life reality? Is what you perceive real? If all the people around you are pretenders, but you do not know, will that be bliss or imprisonment?


One day, you wake up. You find out that everyone has been lying to you. Everyone has been pretending. You have been controlled all along. Your life was being directed. In actual fact, you had no freedom. You never had. You had only lived in a world of lies, in a world of pretence. Even your best friend was yet another pretender. Your wife was an actor. Noone had been real to you.

Run away? Yea. Sure. How? Everywhere you go, they are watching you. Run? To where?
