Masks and mirrors!!

 "The common belief is that those who cry easily are pure of heart. However, my experience suggests otherwise. I suspect that frequent tears are often a ploy for sympathy and a way to deflect blame.

Life's philosophies, including religious texts, often portray existence as a theatrical performance. We are all actors on this stage, from birth to death. Yet, some individuals seem to wear an additional mask, concealing their true selves. Who do they benefit by this deception?

A childhood story about a dog in a house of mirrors resonated with me. We all perceive the world through our own lens, projecting our own qualities onto others. We gravitate towards those who mirror our own characteristics. In the story, one dog joyfully interacts with its reflection, while another reacts with aggression.

However, reality rarely aligns with this simple metaphor. We often encounter situations where initial friendliness turns into hostility.

The ability to discern ulterior motives and potential harm is paramount. Imagine embarking on a long journey with someone harboring ill intentions. It becomes impossible to disembark once their true nature is revealed, leaving you stranded and vulnerable.

Life's unpredictability can feel overwhelming, akin to navigating in perpetual darkness. How can one cultivate patience, faith, and trust in such an uncertain environment? This constant uncertainty can leave one feeling shattered and lost."
