Everyone wears a mask no matter who they are or what they say. All people have secrets that they are not proud of or flaws that they only pull out in the depth of their own comfort. Sometimes if we are lucky, people will pull off parts of their mask a little at a time to reveal what is hidden to the eye. The thing about masks is the people that wear them are not only scared about what other people may see if they pull them off, but they are scared of what they will see themselves. No one wants to see themselves as the truth. They want to be the best and masks are able to show them that; although, deep down they know the truth. Do not put a show on for these around you. Do not pretend for people. Try to be as open as you can to show yourself. Hope that other people will do the same. Right now, the people you think you can trust are the ones that hide the most from you. They have the biggest masks and although you think you know them and their motives, I am here to tell you to beware. If only you could hear their true thoughts at two in the morning when you aren't there standing beside them and they can only say what they really feel. I hope one day you will realize the people who really care about you will call you out on your mask and love your flaws! Those are the people you should fill your life with no matter how much they may tell the truth to you or what hurt they may sometimes cause. Tears may stream down your face in their presence, but as each tear falls, the things you hide will be wiped away and you will be renewed. Take this as a warning, for somewhere far along this road, they will drop you and leave you alone to be with your own mask.
