Authenticity??? Where?


Lisa Haneberg is dead on right when she says:
"For many, getting real takes courage. It's true, don't you think? Doesn’t it seem a bit odd that being real – being authentic – requires courage? Why is this? What have we done to ourselves and others that makes being real an action that requires courage?"
