We all wear different masks.
The mask of a smile when we're crying inside.
The mask that we have everything under control, when truly our life is out of control.
The mask of being sober when we're drunk.
The mask of intelligence when the truth is we dropped out of college.
The mask of being wealthy when there is a drawer full of credit card statements waiting to be paid.
The mask of being so busy and popular when in fact we sit alone at night.

Lose the masks. Be vulnerable. Be authentic. Be you.
