Painful Illusion

If you took an honest look at your life,
do you hide a part of yourself behind a painful illusion you created ?

Is there more pain in remaining behind the illusion then the pain that may have caused you to create it ?

OH HELL YES!!!

My outward persona is little more than a buttpuppet for the cesspool of emotions bubbling underneath.





I'm working with it though. shrug

i used to.
i think there's more pain in hiding behind it. in some twisted way its a crutch to continue to blame what created it when in fact you have the power to step from behind the illusion and overcome what created it in the first place. buts thats the hard part when your used to it for so long. but it can be done. hug

I am my persona and my persona is me, the pain that caused me to create it has taken over, the illusion is real.

I am shy on the org.

Yes, definitely. several things. Some of it is because life was painful as I knew it and I didn't know that I could be the force for a positive chsnge in my life. I'm slowly breaking the illusions and for the most part it's a very good thing.
