True faces

We see everyday lives on social media ,  food , shopping , vacations and time spent with one another ! Yet we do not see the real picture of the lives we scroll through constantly everyday ! A smile here, a laugh there ! Underneath it all what really lies there ? What is stored on the drives of our hearts and minds? What lays heavy on the soul ?  The mother with the trouble past full of failures and mistakes , a father who lost his job and shame ways heavily on his shoulders ! The women with anxiety and depression who barely made it out of bed today ! The list goes on and on you watch the play of costumes , masks and shields daily when you scroll

l!  I sit here thinking what if pictures could really tell the true nature of our hearts  ? What if they revealed the darkness ? How would we scroll then ? How would we see these pictures ? Would there be judgment or ridicule ? The fact is you never know anything truly at first glance or by the cover all of us wear ! The way we can truly see someone is by looWe see everyday lives on social media ,  food , shopping , vacations and time king to ourselves , how great are we ? What's really going on underneath in our own hearts ? When you see yourself , i mean the true deep down heart of hearts , Then can you see others in a different light !  The young man who is prideful to you, is really covering for insecurities down deep inside ! What you see as pride he sees as confidence , he sees as a way to feel good about himself because somewhere down the road someone made him feel less or unworthy ! The girl who takes too many selfies is crying out for someone to notice her because at home maybe no one sees her ! The constant flow of posed pictures of clean , organized homes when really mom and dad are fighting in the background! The expensive new cars , wonderful vacations yet deep down when all is said and done they are not happier than you, they are just people like you and me with issues , sadness, and complicated situations ! They may hide behind things , places and split second perfect moments but in truth they are suffering with something to one degree or another!  So next time you scroll think , done judge, don't be envious , dont hate because they appear to have it all together or have more fun. We all have a behind the scenes going on ! Let us love one another , cheer on one another ! when things are not as they need to be or to much of this or too much of that remember they are coping with life just as much as you are ! We all have those days where we are just surviving ! The social media cover we wear is just glimpses ! See you and you will really see others ! No one can judge another without first condemning himself !

Happy scrolling everyone !
