The person behind the mask

[ackhoo]

Do you see the Mask?
Or the Person?
They say the eyes are the windows of the soul
There's a person behind the mask
A living soul
A Father, a Son, a Brother, a Husband
A Man

Hi @achoo,

[ackhoo]

Have a very good weekend!! 😊Thank you very much, @jerrytsuseer!

[lovablesoul]

The mask looks super interesting but I was also looking at the eyes! ;)

[ackhoo]

I know... captures one's attention, right...?!!

[lovablesoul]

Yes exactly :)

[melinda010100]

Wow! Great mask!

[ackhoo]

Thanks, Melinda! 😊
Happy Weekend to you!!

At first the mask is something thay definately catches the eye😄 but once you see the eyes you know theres a person inside.
Which is exactly what we need to keep on reminding ourselves when we meet a person for the first time - there are the first few seconds where the 1st impression kicks in and we immediately judge that person, usually by their looks and how they present themselves... rather than actually getting to lnow that person a bit deeper and see whos behind the 'mask'...
Something we should keep reminding ourselves 😓

[ackhoo]

I like that you took it deeper... A second meaning (if you will) of my mask & the person behind it! The person we see on the surface and the actual person who resides within. Sometimes it is not easy to peel off that mask...So true, @cooknbake... so true...

[erikah]

This masc is really scary! Great find 😊

[ackhoo]

Hahaha... They have so many in Bali; surprisingly the scary ones sometimes are the 'good' forces - you need to be scarier than the evil one to scare it away... 😉

[erikah]

It's interesting to see such things because we don't have that here 😊

[debart]

I can see the person but the mask is so intriguing that is distributes my attention between the two :)

[ackhoo]

Yes, I know what you mean... The mask captures your attention... until you see the person's eyes...

[debart]

Definitely :)

The mask before the person... which should ideally be the opposite in real life

[ackhoo]

How true!

[zirensparvg]

i saw the mask first
then the person beneath
^o^
