“We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others, that in the end, we become disguised to ourselves.”
    ― Francois De La Rochefoucault

Today’s image is, for me, a brief meditation on liminality: any one of us, on any day, contains many selves. Sometimes we slip between them so fluently that we forget which facet is emerging or receding.

It’s not that we lie, not exactly. Our truths are refracted through an unforgiving prism, and no one surface, no angle of tilt, is enough.
