"Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls.
Who steals my purse, steals trash; 'tis something,
nothing;
'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands:
But he that filches me of my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him
and makes me poor indeed."

To some I'm Rob, to some I'm Jasper, to some I'm owner of Jasper's Party Palace. I guess to some I'm all three, but who besides me sees others?
I spoke to a friend about the roles we play and she showed me the ideas I used to think and speak, that some force wills us up and out of whole and down and into actors upon a stage, every time before a different audience and seperate target. To some we're funny and to others we're sexy, others will think a million things. But do you put on the act for yourself, a charade performed in front of your heart? A true performer, after the show, reveals his true character never with fail. This is where role-playing ends and relationships start.
