Curate, connect, and discover
As I've mentioned in my previous post, Halloween season is fast approaching. It is by far one of my favorite holidays. Halloween to me is what I imagine gifted actors are about to feel when working on a movie. When I dawn a costume which I have painstakingly put together I am able to become another person. I forget about any problems or insecurities I might have and lose myself in that other person.
It's a fantastic experience that I look forward to every Halloween (this year is extra special because I'm going to a themed costume wedding, and probably Comic Con). But I can't help but ask myself, is this a bad thing? Am I using this method to run away from my problems the way an addict uses drugs to escape their own troubles? Is my life really that bad that every year I look forward to escaping it by becoming someone else?
