Unicorn

A beautiful creature of myth, only to be seen whispered, but never caught or tamed.

Something that man can only long for but never going to attain.

~Apple Pie

Fear being masked

Most of the time, the expression of anger is only a mask of fear. The fear of losing someone dear can be so great that people do not know how to react to it. They're crying inside, but they can't show it, because the world sees it as a weakness. People are not allowed to cry. And so, the only way to express fear is through anger.

My dear self, please always remember, do not judge only by what you see on the outside. Search for what is hidden, because that is the real truth. Do not be angered by what family members say or express, because they're only afraid of separation. Do not be irritated by the calmness shown when you think they're suppose to break down, because that's their way to help others and/or to hide their fear and uncertainty. They may be screaming inside, you never know. Answer their questions with patience and clarity, because they're brains are in a mess, even if they look calm.

See the tears, feel the fear.
