Do you wear a mask? I’m not talking about a Halloween mask of

the killer from Scream or anything. I’m talking about going out of your

way to look different on the outside than how you feel on the inside.

These masks can be made up of many different things: the way you

dress, the way you act, and the people you hang out with.

I used to wear many masks. I decided how I wanted to be

perceived, and then did what I needed to do to get that image

across, whether it was wearing certain clothes, or laughing at things

that weren’t funny, or hanging around with a certain group of people

even if they weren’t the ones I felt I had the most in common with. But

at the end of the day, I couldn’t change who I was. Wearing these

masks just left me feeling more frustrated than ever that I wasn’t the

person I thought I should be. In fact the person I thought I should be

didn’t exist.

I’ve finally stopped wearing masks, and realized it’s a lot easier

to breathe without doing it through a piece of plastic. The best part is

to find that people actually like me for who I am, when I let my true

colors show.
