We cannot always be ourselves in the company of others.
We really cannot always be ourselves even without the company of others, we always pretend to be someone we are not, but want to be the person we pretend to be. In the company of others we are something we are not, we know it, they don't, but to keep the company of others we have to pretend to be that person out of fear we might lose them. Humans are very social creatures, we love to be in the company of others, doesn't matter who it is, but if you're able to communicate with them, you keep the mirage going for as long as possible to keep our identity a secret.
What we do everyday in life is judged by other people, even with the smallest of tasks, people watch you and make up their mind what they think of you without even, having any communication with you. We cannot be ourselves in the company of others without being judged, or ridiculed. What choice do we have, if we put up walls and hide behind them, if we drop our defenses we are vulnerable for persecution by the company that surround us. It's like a chubby boy going to the pools, before he gets into the pool he puts a shirt on, but if he drops his defenses and goes shirtless he is vulnerable to laughter and humiliation, 'titty boy'. The same goes for each of the people within the group that surrounds you, wouldn't it be different if you met a person one on one, and then you meet them with their friends, they would be totally different people. So, to fit in with their friends, the person you met one on one, is like a totally different person; they would have their own personality but hide it to fit in.
Each person is different, no one is made the same or, lives the same, except the Amish, they are all alike. They are all the same because, they don't have to act different from who they are, they are all brought up in the same way so they would have the same ideals and values, therefore they are all the same simple people. In the company of others, they are simple people with moral values, and are very honest and truthful. Something you don't find very often these days, but if found are kept very close because it's not easy to find another. People that stay honest to themselves, and have some moral values, would find friends that share the same, not abandon who they are to be something they are not.
