The Price of Beauty


Is it normal to sit in front of a mirror and practice the movement of your lips? Or how you move your hands while talking? Sure, if your an actor, it is actually necessary. But, what if your just that average person, who goes to school or to work or whatever the heck you do? Are you playing a role? Does reality become a play to you?
Those question cross my mind when I talk to people who just seem be perfect - not as a person, but aesthetically. It's just beautiful to watch them. But I know for a fact, that some of those practice the art of talking.
So, if you are an actor of life, where does your personality go? You don't "act" naturally anymore, so it's not really your personality you are showing the rest of the world, but little moves that you copy from some person you saw on tv.
Maybe it's like selling your soul. You give up your personality and naturality, but, you get to be admired for your beatiful gestures and stuff.
Yeah, that's so cool...
