But soon, I saw illusions instilled into me fall away too. An illusion of weakness, of hesitation, of being weak and disappointing. The illusion of finding it necessary to "act like a man"... all these illusions that had been put on me by someone else. These illusions which had, honestly, made up my entire childhood and bound up my personality, pinned it down and kept me from being my true self had fallen away.
