Masks, You know those things that some people just can't wait to put on for Halloween? Well to me its kind of a ironic that some people put on masks to take off the one they wear every other day of the week. No one can see their face to they "let loose' and have a little fun. Heck we all do it, myself included even though I am also fairly content to be ridiculous all by myself and greatly enjoy helping others get in touch with their ridiculous and silly side as well.

Now of course I don't mean that everyone wears some face paint, or plastic rubbery thing to obscure their face, I'm talking about the masks we wear to do our jobs and conduct business in life. The things we go out and do because "we have to" not because they bring any true satisfaction to our over all well being and satisfy our soul.

There are lots of masks for daily life with job titles taking the place of the actual human being. Doctor, lawyer, accountant, fisherman, paramedic, truck driver, hair dresser, marketing director, you get the idea, I could go on and on. But who are you inside really? What do you like to do? What makes you feel happy, not just safe, at the end of the day.

Then there are the masks we wear to pretend we don't have feelings that sometimes develops into a "style" The Grin and Bear It, Patient as a Saint, Superman/Superwoman, Exuberant, Positive, Bitter, Angry, Professional, Hot Mess there are many to choose from and many in between.

Just some random thoughts not saying they mean anything.

It is what it is.
