You cannot be the person they know and the great, glorious person you want to become. Not at the same time.

To a certain extent everybody has a certain sort of way of being a persona that they learn how to be when they're really little. They figure out that if they're really funny, or really pretty, or if they work really, really hard or are really smart, then that's what's going to get them by. That is what is going to make people like them.

A shadow of a reflection of an image of an illusion.

Your folks are god, you love them and you want to make them happy but you still want to make up your own rules.
