We all wear masks to some degree—polished personas shaped by expectations and roles. Yet our true character is often revealed in the smallest, most unguarded moments. 

Inspired by Carl Jung’s thought-provoking idea that two simple questions can uncover who we really are, this article explores how we treat those who can do nothing for us, and how we respond when life goes wrong. These situations expose the essence of our values and resilience, offering a mirror for self-reflection and growth. 

By paying attention to these everyday windows into authenticity, we can move closer to living with integrity and compassion, unmasking not only others but ourselves.
