Masks

It seems as though every single one of us wears a mask. When were going through something, or are just hurting deep inside we seem to hide it all away and wear a mask that says "Im happy i love life!" when in reality we can feel like were dying inside. Were afraid of what people may think, will they think im crazy? will they think im weird? When actually there are many people going through exactly what your going through. The best thing to do is to just let it all out, talk to someone you trust, just be open and throw your mask away. Do not be ashamed of who you are or what your going through. The longer we hold it in the worse it feels, until we dont even recognize the face underneath the mask. When were going through something, although we may not admit it, we want someone to talk to us about it. when someone asks "how have you been?" and we reply with a deep sigh saying "oh im okay". we want them to ask us whats wrong, we want to feel like someone cares about us and what were going through. But we have someone who loves us more than anything in the entire universe, someone who cares deeply about what were going through, and all we need to do is reach out to him.
