Day 642, Do It Yourself Face


This is the image we construct for others.

We choose our costume for the stage and the backstage.

Our actions directed by props.

In social settings we might choose our props and stage too.

We adjust to the settings we are offered.

And all who take part implicitly agree the definition of the situation.*
