Think about how often we fool people. "How are you?" "Oh I'm fine." You say with a fake smile.
I've heard many people, myself included, talk about the masks we wear. So many people, including those closest to us, don't even know we are wearing a mask. Sometimes we drop it and break it. That's when people see the real us. That is until we fix the mask, & magically everyone believes we are ok. Why do they believe that lie? Because they don't want to know the truth and we do a good job of making them believe it. So to all my fellow actors & actresses I tip my hat to your abilities.

Sometimes I smile and say it because I want it to be true and I hope that if I just say it enough times it might come true.
Sometimes I do it because I'm just too tired to tell the truth. Sometimes I say it because it's really none of their damn business. Sometimes I fake it because I'm scared that if I start telling them the truth eventually this torrent of words and feelings will come gushing out and I'll lose myself in the flood. And sometimes I say it because if I told the truth they might lock me away. Sometimes the mask is my very good friend And sometimes it's my worst enemy. My problem is I can't always tell those times apart |
