I thought I was okay after my aunt's death, but apparently I miscalculated, or perhaps didn't really understand the poisonous effects of death on the victim and everyone and everything within its path. I definitely didn't see the purpose in her death, nor do I really want to know it. And then i think, i should just get over my thoughts, feelings, etc., but can one really overreact to death? what ever expressions of sorrow that one feels days, weeks, or years later are ligitimate. can you really ever tell somebody "get over it", "move on", " it was so long ago, put your life back together"? I really think you can't, and if someone hasn't fully recovered from the impact 5,10, 15 years later,that is perfectly okay. Who is to say, you should get over the impact of death by X date? In a society where everything is microwaveably fast, everything is expected to be processed rapidly, and moved onto the next phase. Yet, death, refuses to follow those guidelines; it lingers and haunts for as long as it desires. It dictates when the next phase of life will begin.I am utterly fascinated at the intricate masks that we weave for ourselves and graciously wear daily. what would life be like with no mask? An open exhibit to the public? People would just know who you are; a projection void of omissions and exclusions, but full of transparent verity. This is truth. For in wearing a mask, you wear a lie. Does truth cover the risks of violation, harm, or unexpected agonies that exist? What are the benefits of projecting truth?3:21 PM 0 Falling Stars
