Humans are shameful beings. They hide their bodies and discard in disdain the natural nakedness of beasts. They hide their actions and beliefs in pretty little lies. The collective shame of humanity rejects and ignores reality. It creates facades and treats them as though they are real, though they who fabricate such falsehoods know their productions are only that—false. KNOW THIS: Your secrets will betray you. The truth will come to light. When you are laid bare for all to see, what will be left of you? How much of you is a lie? When the lies are stripped from you, is there still a you to return to—or have you forsaken genuine growth in favor of feeble constructions? Do your friends know who you are? Does your family? Do you?
The only escape is to be SHAMELESS. Don’t you want to be known? How can you be seen and loved for who you are if what your present to the world is only a character? Let go. Let the Shameless wash over you. Let it wash away your lies. When you have nothing left to hide, there is no fear in being caught in the spotlight. There is only freedom. Come, be SHAMELESS, and you will finally understand what it means to be known. Your darkest secrets are more common than you know, but until you can volunteer them freely, you cannot know the light of knowing and being known. It starts with confessions and progresses to proclamations. Scream from the rooftops: “I AM WHAT I AM!” Only then will you be free. Stand proud in the spotlight, and soon you will come to know us.
