Hi all,
I hope you slept really, really good;=) I did, but we watched a horror movie called After Life with Liam Neeson and Christina Ricci and it was a bit scary and disturbing so it took me some time to fall asleep;=) Just like Halloween should be, a bit scary;=)
Today I want to talk about how some people hide their "right faces". What I mean is people who go around pretending to be nice and kind and playing all sweet and so on to you and you start to trust them and think they mean well to you. You let them into your heart, you are a friend to them and give them your trust and love and maybe even get to be close friends.
Then all of a sudden the person changes and show their real face and can be so mean to you, totally different and saying and doing things you never thought that person could ever do. Hurting you, doing everything you never ever thought this "friend" or close one would do to you. Cause all you saw was a nice person, a person who said they liked you, cared about you, were happy for you and so on. But it wasn't true. It was just a face the person put on to fool you and everyone else around.
Some people are really good at playing to be someone they are not and it can be very hard to see their right faces in time and if you don't, you will end up getting hurt. Cause I believe they can't pretend for so long, lying and acting to be someone you aren't takes its toll and if you walk around pretending to be someone you´re not, the act will fail one day and everyone will see who you really are in the end.
For me, I´ve met these kind of people in my life and its hard to understand how someone can act as if they like you, pretend to be a friend, pretend to the world as if they are all sweet and caring, but deep within themselves, its all an act. And they talk behind your back, laugh at you when you are not there, saying mean things about you and making up lies to others that are not true, to justify themselves and protect their lying "face". Cause they don't want anyone to see their "right face". Then everyone would know that its all an act and they would loose everything they´ve worked so hard to build up for everyone to believe.
But I believe we all will show our right faces at one point, cause if you live your life, pretending to be something you are not, the mask will fall someday and you´ll show your right face. Cause that´s the face that is rightfully yours and no matter how hard you try to hide it, it will show.
So I believe its much better to show your right face, be honest about who you are, say to others what you really feel about them instead of going behind their backs, be true to yourself and who you are. Don't try and be nicer than you are. Don't pretend to be so nice and good if you can't live up to it.
If you don't like someone, then don't pretend as if you do. Cause that person might think you really care and like him/her and when you don't and show your right face, it can crush that person.
Enjoy this day now and be a true friend to your friends;=)
