A lot of people would tell you to never judge a book by its cover, and I would say that it goes with everything. Our eyes are the most fooled entity ever to exist, and I don't know if everyone realized that. Our eyes can see everything that is within the premise of our vision, but not everything that our eyes see is real, and that is because whatever we see is just a mere façade and everything is hidden within; only those who are willing to unravel are able to see the depths-the true hidden underneath.
Through this work, I would like to tell a story about how we make a persona out of our own selves. We may appear as perfect as possible, but deep within ourselves, we all know that we are rooted in what we all call our façade. The perfect picture we want others to depict every time we are remembered. It may be difficult to accept, but our portrayal of ourselves is merely a character we cultivate to present to others.
As you read through my words, maybe it will help you find your own translation of your emotions. You may have hidden yourself long enough, but one day, when the right time comes, you will come to realize that it is time to unmask yourself and tear down your façade. Take it slow; courage will be born from your heart when you are ready to tell the world every side of yourself.
Enjoy reading and keep your heartstrong!
