How utterly exhausting it must be to put on a different persona for different situations, to always be "on" instead of your plain ol' self.
Obviously I understand there are times when one should be professional or formal, and not drop f-bombs constantly (although, if this COULD become acceptable in all situations, that'd be fucking bomb dig) - that's not what I'm talking about.
But to be a different person on the job, a different person with friends, a different person on a committee, a different person amongst family - that is what I'm talking about. That's a life that will exhaust you.
It's so much easier to just be real and genuine and always YOU.
It doesn't take any extra effort to be yourself, you just...be you. That shouldn't be at all exhausting; it should be freeing!
And if the real and genuine YOU isn't good enough for all of those situations, then either decide to work on you, or just say a hearty "fuck off!" to those people and who they need you to be.
You need to be you, and you are enough.
