☆ Masquerade [IA Challenge]

Tweet

It's funny how closely the challenges from Inspiration Avenue are mirroring my life at the moment. Synchronisty in practice perhaps?

This weeks masquerade, had me thinking about masks and the face we show family is different to friends, is different to strangers, and is different still to our online family and friends.

I've written before about how light I feel when the mask isn't on, how hard it is to take it off, so I have been thinking a lot about this again.

But I also thought about how sometimes that mask actually becomes part of us. You know the old adage - fake it till you make it? Put that confidence mask on, or the brave mask, or the creativity mask, and perhaps it will be so normal that the masquerade becomes true.

Do you find your masks helps you? or have you relinquished your masks? Does any one really truely hang up their masks?

Have a great weekend.
