That stunning, confident selfie is often layered with filters, clever lighting, and an hour of retakes.
Just as an image can be digitally enhanced, so too can an entire online personality be manufactured.
Some people craft an aspirational identity, witty, profound, and perpetually happy, that masks the insecurities and complexities of their actual day-to-day existence.

The gap between their posted self and their real self can be enormous.
Remember: a filter hides flaws, but it doesn’t solve problems.
The most genuine connections happen offline, where real vulnerability can thrive, not behind a glossy screen.
