i wake in the morning and begin a new day- what costume to wear for the role that i'll play paint a smile on my face be a humorous clown make the people laugh while inside i frown or maybe a cape and a hero i'll be in case of a crisis they'll have to call me but playing dress-up on inside or out is not what i choose to make my life about i don't need a mask no need to pretend i'll just wear my heart in the role of a friend -vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

This is so true; the many roles we assume, yet what better face to show that the face of the soul that wrote this!!!  Peppermint Life is a Wheel |

Vicky I think we all wear masks sometimes. Too bad we have to. I much prefer the true heart of a friend! |

It can be fun to pretend sometimes, and sometimes we feel we have to, to protect others or ourselves, but you make a great choice here. There's nothing more becoming than the heart of a true friend, and you wear it well. hugs To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

true friendship sounds through your words, and lighten up your face, so don't use a mask. Charisma..... |
