On the occasion of birthdays and parties, children have the opportunity to have their faces painted. Many have their faces painted as animals and then wear a corresponding costume at carnival, for example, so that it is clear to everyone around them what kind of animal they are. Depending on the child's personality, they then behave in the same way: they hiss or move in the same way as they have seen this animal do. And of course they want to be treated accordingly by their environment - just as you would speak to or meet such an animal. Well, with the exception of food, presumably. Whatever. The fact is: even if the children feel like these animals in such situations and however well they interpret them - they are not. And so it is important and good for all of us to remember who we are from time to time. Interpreting someone else, however genuinely, is not our identity.
I wish you an extraordinary day!
