Couldn't think of a nice title.

This is the third time i've come to this website today, with something to say and then fallen short when it came time to type it all out.I feel like i should write something. because i feel like i have something to say.No,don't go away-im not going to talk talk about depression because the weekend's coming up and I DO NOT want to ruin it.
I realized today that mere small talk can go a long way.Whenever greeting someone, whether I know them or not, it's become habitual for me to say "hi, how are you?" and then expect an answer like "fine" or "well." So why did this habit start if i never actually cared about the person's response, since people always responded in the same way? It was today I realized people didn't always respond the same way at all. Sure, with their words they did, but not with their facial expressions, their posture, their eyes. By looking past what the person is just saying, i got a sense of what they really meant. I think that with small talk, subconsciously, we're letting strangers and the world around us know how we really are, our real story, all by using the mask of politeness; so that maybe, when we really need it most, someone will notice what's behind the mask and try to help a fellow human being.


Try saying the workd 'masks' 10 times..I can't say it right.:P
