a mask

In English today we discussed how often times people hide their feelings, pain, and emotions with a mask. We try to cover up our sorrow and pretend everything is okay when really it's the opposite. I am guilty of this, and I am almost certain I do this every day of my life.

As I have said on this blog before, I've been struggling with some health issues. Those who know this often ask me questions like: "How are you feeling?" etc... My normal response is, "I'm okay"...when in all reality I could break down and say, "I'm feeling terrible!" I keep it in, and just try to keep going. I don't know why I wear this "mask" but I do....I guess it is to keep people from worrying.

When I feel bad, I just try to keep on keepin' on...and I try to hide it with a smile.

I know that God will get me through this, I am leaning on my Rock, and letting Him hold me....
