lets keep the Halloween spirit running , Happy Halloween to y’all.
lets talk history, according to history.com. Halloween is a holiday celebrated each year on October 31, and Halloween 2020 will occur on Saturday, October 31. The tradition originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints. Soon, All Saints Day incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows Eve, and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving jack-o-lanterns, festive gatherings, donning costumes and eating treats.
now let’s talk about masks and costumes, on a day like Halloween we dress up like some famous or some other people that had a positive or negative reputation,
on a robbery, the will put on something else, let us recall on trending series like money heist the robbers wore something to cover their faces and even other robbers wear masks to hide their identities.
for kids party we put on masks, masquerade and other costumes to make the kids happy.
now costumes and mask have played a great role in achieving many things it can be for enjoyment, amusement and even for bad deeds such as robberies and sometimes even mass killings.
some people use mask to create confidence and sometimes hide from the other people to avoid recognition.
come think of it, our lives are sometimes based on masks and costumes. you’ll say yes we put on for a good reason but what am improvising or what am saying it’s not the physical masks we put but its the PRETENCE and FAKING that we do daily inorder for people to see our version that we have decided to show them.
we fake life, pretend on emotions and sometimes imitating others, simply because we think its the right way to fit in. we long for acceptance but in the end we are dying inside for what we think is right turning not to be as what we expect.
we stay on characters while we are with people and we feed them some picture that is not real us.
Enough of the masks and costumes, lets just shade them off, be the real us. you know being you makes you comfortable and confident for anything that you’ll take or do because you are the always you. you’re familiar with you and you don’t need someone to tell you how to behave. Grow up your you is the only you needed for the world to see..
Bless Up
