I think you know the icon depicting the theater with a happy and sad mask. Life would be simple if you could always say if someone is sad or happy – not to mention yourself. However, emotions are not as easily perceptible in real life as on the theater stage.

Sometimes the environment is so toxic that the only option is to wear a gas mask that covers all facial expressions. It ensures that you cannot be exposed to harmful people, actions or feelings in the environment. On the other hand, then you will also not be able to live a full life and create satisfying relationships.

The most important thing is to identify what kind of mask you are wearing, to identify your own feelings and to strive to increase communication between people to increase your understanding of feelings and allow them to be expressed within healthy limits. As a rule, you can choose your mask yourself. Choose wisely.
