LXIV

What's Wrong with You? 

Patiently anticipating my routine appointment with my psychiatrist, I wait with the rest of the patients. Constantly drifting through my head is the same question, "I wonder why they are here?" Yet discussing the apparent issues is considered taboo.
Certainly, it is no secret that we are all broken in our own way. No need to ignore it, for we all have faults. Outwardly, we tirelessly construct an elaborate facade. However, inwardly we share the same shame, sin, guilt, and mistakes. We mask our true shortcomings for the sake of our personal pride and reputation. 
Transparency, apparently, is denounced by our surrounding culture. Instead, opaque  false personalities are in vogue.
