I once read something about how everyone wears a mask and how we can never really be ourselves. This made me think about why. Why can't we let people in and see the real us? Why do we have to be perfect? Why do we have feel like we need to hide constantly because of who we are?
Now ask yourself this, if you weren't perfect would your friends still be there for you? If they are true friends they would regardless of what you wear or what you own. Do you really think that if you weren't good looking everyone would just walk out on you? If you think any of this, maybe its time you find yourself some new friends. Ones that wouldn't walk out on you if something happened.
I have been thinking a lot and even I put on a mask. I guess that's part of the reason I started this blog. I can write anything in here and no one will take it personally and I can just vent and won't have to explain it later. I'm not sure why I have to wear a mask. I'm sure I would still have friends even if I wasn't always happy, or wasn't as pretty or smart.
Another reason I wear a mask is because I have troubles letting people in. Ever since my parents split up, I have only let very few people see the real me, and it seems that every person I let in ends up hurting me anyways, even if its not on purpose. It's going to take a lot to get myself to let people see who I really am, but I'm working on it. So if I hold out to far, give it time, I will let you in. You may have to just let me know, and show me that you won't hurt me. I'm not going to go into how, or who, hurt me, just know that I have had problems in the past that's going to take some time to get over. All I ask is if I let you, don't hurt me. I've been hurt enough.
Why wear a costume when we wear so many masks?

P.S. This is the real me.....
