How many masks do you have?

The world is a stage, said the wise man. Since this is a stage, then everyone does not play themselves.

Try looking at people who are dating. They are not only fragrant but they are also much more polite. If they usually get up late, they will get up early in the morning so they can be together with their loves.

Just look at people who are legislative candidats. They who usually are indifferent with their invironment, will turn out to be very caring people. Often, the changes occur in just one night.

Other wise people say that if we want to know how someone’s nature, travel with them. If you want to see how the nature of people who are dating, look at the moment when they are no longer in love with their lovers. They will easily get angry and seek their lover’s fault. If you want to see how the original nature of the legislative candidate, look at the time when they are not selected. Will they remain concerned about the environment or vice versa? Ask donations they have given?

Over time people will unwittingly unmask themselves and show their original nature. “The Monster inside Me” will be revealed.

When we hang out, it would be very easy for us to see these masks people wear on their faces. Surprisingly, “the masked people” often do not realize that they are masking their true identity .


Unlike most people who wear invisible masks, V, in V for Vendetta, written by Alan Moore comic, wearing a Guy Fawkes mask (physical masks) to bring about a revolution while protecting his true identity.

So what's the difference between physical masks and invisible masks that are widely used by people around us?

Invisible mask that is used by most people, is used to save personal interests. Physical mask used by V not only worn for the sake of his safety, but also for the interests of many people. V tried to make people aware that they live in a deliberate injustice created by tyrants.
I remember the dialogue between Evey and V when Evey asks V’s actual identity.
Evey Hammond: " Who are you? "
V: " Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man ina mask "
Evey Hammond: " Well, I can see that."
V: " Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. "

V covers his identity not for his personal gain!
