As I slip into deep sleep. My mind ponders the events that just happened. Could it possibly be any worse. All that I have been is lost in a moment. All that I have possessed taken in an instant. Is this the end? Will I live again? Will I be released from the sleep that has captured me?
If I could just live again. I would be different and not conform to the world that I just left. As I reflect on who I have been I realize that who I have been is not who I am. The life that I have lived was no more than a mask covering the real me. What has happened was not to kill me but to reveal me.
We can live our entire lives covering who we really are to conform to the world that surrounds us. The lie must die. We have to be who we are. We were not made to be religious, riotous, rude, or prideful. We were made to love. Conforming hides the beauty of who you are and it makes us carry a burden that can be unbearable at times. When we get tired of carrying our mask we find relief in the true identity of who we are. Accept who you are with open arms.
