Remove the Mask!

I was thinking the other day - 

how many of us feel that we hide behind a mask?

I am not talking about one you might actually wear in person -

It might be a mask of fear -

You are afraid to move forward after great hurt.

It might be a mask of anger -

You are angry with a situation that is out of your control.

It might be a mask of insecurity -

You are insecure in your own skin and you hide from others.

It might be a mask of pride -

You allow your pride to rule how you might deal with someone.

All of these 'masks' can limit your joy

these 'masks' can limit your future 

these 'masks' can limit YOU!

So, you've experienced a great hurt - 

There were possibly some highlights that changed you.

Continuing to allow yourself to revisit the hurt

will not allow you to move forward.

Remove the mask!

You have experienced anger - 

Maybe for whatever reason - your situation was not caused by you.

Continuing to be angry does no damage to the one who inflicted it.

Releasing your anger and allowing lessons to remain - that is the choice!

Remove the mask!

Insecurity is a myth - did you know that?

Eleanor Roosevelt said it best : 

“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” 

You must not ALLOW anyone to tear you down!

Remove the mask!

Pride 

Pride always goes before a fall - nearly every time!

You can most definitely be happy about a job well done -

However, if you let it - Pride can also make you seem better than another.

Don't let Pride rule the roost!

Remove the mask!

Just like in a masquerade ball,

Removing the mask reveals the

 TRUE IDENTITY 

of the one who was hidden.

What will your true identity reveal

when you

Remove the mask?
