Masks

One of the best memories from my favorite childhood vacation place is hanging over the edge of a dock staring into the water. Our faces were reflected perfectly in calm water and distorted in rough water. The same is true of our heart. If our heart is in a storm, it is reflected in our countenance. If we experience a calm heart, our face reveals the same. Remember, whatever is in our heart will be reflected on our face. Honesty involves allowing our internal experience to match our outward expression. Masks may be appropriate at times but not often or always. Healing comes in a setting of those we have come to know we can be honest with…storm or calm.
