I want to pay tribute to wonderful people I have known, the wonderful country in which I live, the communities in which I have lived, the churches who have claimed me as their own, the God who sends shivers down my back when I really give him a portion of my time—well, maybe not shivers but tears flow easily in some of those most priceless times.

MASKED FACES
Second: Bob and Jennifer. Such a fine couple. She was a Brooke Shields lookalike. Probably made more money than any other neighbor we ever had. Oil business of some sort. Series of loud pops in the night….Five police cars…Bob in handcuffs…Jennifer standing alone in the yard as police drove off with Bob. I went out and asked if she would like company for the rest of the night. She said yes so I spent the rest of the night with her. It was the only time I’ve ever seen real bullet holes in a house. It was a most revealing look at what could happen even when masks were fine and expensive.

No matter the quality, they are masks just the same. I’d rather be aound someone unpleasant, than someone feigning kindness
Thanks for the comment, Violet. You are right. It is not wise to trust every smile you meet. 😀
lot of face masks….nice post
Thank you.
God alone knows who really is behind the mask. indeed in so many shapes forms and for many different reasons. How much we need to be people of LOVE (only Christ can help us) to all people not by superficial attitude or appearances.
