I want to insult your intelligence by telling you some of the most
elementary things that exist and you don’t notice, the first thing which I would like to bring to your notice is the issue of identity crisis....A Indian poet has phrased this as, " Ek ek Aadmi ke hain bees bees chehren, jitni baar milta hoon ek naye aadmi se milta hoon."
Generally, we all pretend to be somebody else than we are....Mr. A is is pretending as if he was Mr. B, Mr. B is pretending to be Mr. C, and Mr. C is pretending to be somebody else, but one thing is certain, no body is respected and accepted as they are....Everybody is taught and forced to be like somebody else...hence there is so much identity crisis in the world. Nobody knows who is who....
Whatever we know about ourselves is nothing but accumulation of opinions which we have gathered from others, we see ourselves through other's eyes. We don't know who we actually are. Hence, others opinion plays pivotal roll in our lives..John Dewey, one of America's most profound philosophers, said that the deepest urge in human nature is "the desire to be important", important in the eyes of others.

We are all enslaved to others opinion, an opinion can make you feel good or bad, we live on others opinion, there is a tacit understanding among people, 'I have to put flowers on your wound and you have to put on mine, this mutual understanding among people is known as social etiquette.
Aolf Hitler says in his autobiography ‘Mein Kampf, "If you repeat a lie often enough, it appears as if it was the truth." This is what has happened to us, we ourselves have forgotten our own face.
It is high time we shed our personas and got rid of our phony personality, we have to have courage to accept ourselves the way we are, otherwise we are bound to go insane, almost everybody is on the verge of going man, study shows that in cosmopolitans there out of four are insane, most of the people have some or the other psychological problems. In big cities almost everyone finds it hard to fall asleep naturally.
Until unless we become honest with ourselves, we cannot be at ease, and I must say that honesty should be real, it must not be policy, because it is almost always that, I have seen some kind of insincerity behind the purpose of being sincere.
At the end I would like to quote Johann Wolfgang, he says," If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise."
