Who’s hiding behind that smiling DP?
And what are they hiding?

I look at the smiling faces of my friends on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, and the other social platforms and wonder who’s hiding behind that smiling face?
Perhaps you do that. Hide. In plain sight.
To many in the world you’re that smiling face. They don’t see you cry, they don’t see you struggling with your problems. They just see that smiling face. That still moment, perhaps posed for or perhaps genuine, a fleeting moment in the time you spend on Earth.
I know some of my friends don’t smile. Or don’t smile enough. Yet their faces do. When I talk about stress with them I see their texts which sound worried but their faces smile and beam at me.
It makes me wonder how can anyone be so genuinely happy in one moment and be unhappy in another?
Where did that person go? Where are they hiding?
