Isn’t it a wonder how one can live in a world of pretence knowingly things happens in reality but denies the actual fact, that it did happen.

Self-denial or Living in a world of pretence?

How does one again, pretend they’re happy but in actual fact that they are feeling the total opposite.

Then again, portraying a “Front Stage” and hiding your “Backstage”.

Shakespeare crafted the famous sentence "All the world is a stage, and all the men and women merely players".

Social psychologist Erving Goffman had a similar dramaturgical analogy. Familiar?

People show how they want to be seen. He’s the actor. And other people like what they see. They’re the audience. An actor will only show their “frontstage” – how others see them. And Audience would love to see an actor put on a good show. Thus does it make the actor a freaking liar? Is it wrong to enjoy a good show?

In order to have a good show, An actor wouldn’t portray themselves in front of an audience. What the audience didn’t get to see is their “backstage”. The reason for doing so? Not being able to grasp the fact the show on stage will be less than a mediocre?

People lived in a world of pretence, and others self-deny. I Questioned the unanswerable.  Hoping the truth will be answered by that one. To that one – Why? Be in a state of self-denial.

This artificial, willed credulity of Human plays happens in Life. Which makes us all…? Liars. Pretenders. Deniers.
