Halloween

Halloween: the one night of the year when it's socially acceptable to pretend to be somebody else. Which is why I know that even if they took away the free candy, we'd still love it. For 364 days a year we get to be ourselves and that is absolutely fantastic, but we must admit that the 365th day is a nice break. Being yourself always comes with expectations and labels and constant responsibility right? Being Batman or a lumberjack or a princess on October 31st comes with none of that. You can say it's just a costume but it never is. Whether we like it or not, we become different people on Halloween and personally, I love it. It's when we try to be other people that we learn the most about ourselves.
