Today, I do not feel strong.
It feels good to get that out in the open.
Most of the time, I feel the need to pretend I'm okay, when I know I'm not. I'm a pretty good actress. Then I find I get frustrated when people don't ask me what's wrong, if I'm okay. I get angry when they can't see past the guise I'm presenting.
And I'm the one who's biggest pet-peeve is insincerity and dishonesty?
What a hypocrite I've become.
I've forgotten that, sometimes, it's okay to not be okay.
And I've forgotten that it's okay to let the people that care, know.

First of all, I love the coldplay song that the title of this post takes itself from.
Secondly, I'm glad that you can get this out into the open. Its so easy to pretend (especially in our academic bubble) that everything is just peachy, when in reality we are dying on the inside.
Thirdness, chuck the guise into the trash. I think people who are always perfect are the ones who end up being the serial killers in the end. Don't be a serial killer, be normal.
Ok, next time I ask you "how you are doing?" I want a straight answer. No bullshit. :]
