No more masks!

Who am I? 
Good question. 
Sometimes we question why we're even here or why we lead the life we do. Sometimes we think we aren't doing anything that even matters. Or sometimes we don't even realize it; but we don't show who we are. Have any of your friends seen you at your worst? Or even heard about it? Probably not. Have you even seen yourself at your worst? I mean are you being real with yourself and  accepting the fact that at some point you weren't perfect? 
You probably are wearing a mask half, or more, of the time. Maybe when you're around some friends you act weird and be yourself or maybe ou try to fit in with them. Maybe at church you act extra biblical, quoting scripture and carrying a bible around. Maybe at work you act responsible. Around your friend's parents you act mature. These are all examples of you not being real. We need to take our mask off. Show people who we really are. I recently got an iPhone (to use as an MP3 player but that's really not important. ) and I got it for free because it has cracks on it. Anyways it came with a protective case. A shield. With that on you can't hear the music as well or take good pictures or anything. It's all a lesser quality. When you take that case off it reveals the cracks and imperfections showing what the iPhone is and making it vulnerable to breakage and things like that. But it functions so much better! We need to be like that. We need to take off our protective layer and be vulnerable. Tell people about our mistakes and faults. Our 'cracks' and that can take so much guilt and worry off of us. It relieves our burdens. 
Who am I? 
Well that's all your decision. You are who you make yourself to be. 
Find someone you can be completely vulnerable and real with. Tell them who you are. Because they will love you even with your cracks. 
You guys are all awesome inside and out!
