Masks

"All of what we see and show are masks... Unless of course you are able to see beyond"



By this, I start saying that what we see of a person, is not really the whole thing, this being is just showing us a phase, a face, a mask. And it is not that we need to lie to others about ourselves most of the time, not either is it that we need to hide from everyone. But it happens.

And this is because we have such a huge universe inside of us, that we are just not able to show it all to everyone, so we instead of showing our whole selves, which would be overwhelming, we show masks, some are our truly face, showing a real part of us. Some others find their own masks unsatisfying and they built ones that really don't fit them.

Some we use just for protection, some we use to like others, but for a not so little group of people, they are use to create confusion, deceive or just cold blooded bullshit. And this is why we are so fearful and paranoid about others, because we are afraid their masks might hide something horrible or hurting.

We use masks not just to hide our worlds, but to hide ideas, thoughts, feelings; sometimes we need to wear these masks for safety, but with so many layers, how do we know we haven't lost ourselves?

But then there is other group, which is truly small of this kind of people that are able to see through fake masks, able to pierce that thick cover for protection or deception, and those are the cursed ones, because they are able to see beyond, beyond the barrier intended to protect us form ourselves, cursed to a life without friendly little lies, a life without the peace of a "everything is going to be alright".

Forever, cursed with a life of truth.
