Taking off the mask
Standing there in her vulnerability
Trusting them to accept her as she was
Took all her courage, audacity
The truth was finally unmasked

Um I clearly missed something. That image was not the image you initially shared. Was the other image taken down?

Often our masks are to protect our own egos. To be seen and accepted as who we are can be a good thing –
Which reminds me of the saying; To have a friend, you must be a friend. 😀
