This is a true short story about myself but I’m sure it may apply to others.
Like a lot of people, I have lived many lives or maybe just wore many faces, sometimes that feels necessary so that others may not see everything.
I have hidden who I am for so long that sometimes I forget myself. People tend to take advantage of good or good-hearted.
I’ve gone through so many stages as a young man and an adult, now I found something that has set me free from all of that no matter what comes my way.
All I had to do all these years was submit to being good! That along with honest and having Honor.
I can’t say its helped with money or relationships but it has opened my eyes to so much that otherwise, I would have never seen.
It doesn’t matter how my day goes or even how I feel, as long as I keep a smile, be courteous, and speak with a caring voice it seems to brighten my day and may do the same for others.
No one should ever have to wear a face other than the one they are. So many think they have to be a certain way or do certain things for others to like them. If this is true then the people they are friends with are not friends at all.
I chose this new me and I really have no concerns if others like it or make fun of it.
It’s who I am.
Very wise words my dear blogger friend🤗

I dont know how to wear a different face, but I try to be polite as much as possible. But still can’t really change my personality.

It’s like wearing a smile when you feel your worst. It’s better to smile but it helps to talk about problems rather than hiding them.
