Would You Take Off Your Mask?

If I was a superhero, I don’t know that I would be able to hide it from my loved ones. I would try – god knows, I would try. But I think in the end, I’d probably be like the new version of Iron Man. Not because I want accolades. No, but because I wouldn’t want a super villain or anyone else to think that they could black mail me by trying to tell my secret identity.

Well, that, and everyone always remembers me. Period.

And it would take no time at all for people to guess my identity anyway. So, let’s save ourselves some trouble, I think, and just be out with it.

I wish this was my “coming out” party but it’s not. I wish I could say that this little rant of mine is leading up to an unmasking…. but all you would find is normal girl posing as a fan.

If you had multiple personalities, would you be able to keep it a secret? Or would you tell the world?

(Note: As I was getting ready to post this, I thought of the anime/cartoon documentaries that I’ve watched. Normally, you learn the identities of voice actors. And it can be disappointing. When I watch a program, I don’t want to picture the real life person – I want to be sold on the character. So, maybe I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want to be like Brad Pitt in World War Z. (explanation: during that entire stupid movie, I never once thought of Brad Pitt as anyone other than Brad Pitt. He did not act in that movie. He simply was.) So maybe I would hide behind a mask – at least for as long as possible. I wouldn’t want to disappoint anyone.)

    • It’s a tough one, isn’t it? But the fact is, I agree with you. In the end, I’d have to tell those closest to me – if for no other reason than I’d want to make sure that they knew they could become potential targets – you know?
