Walking around today it reminded me of a quote I once heard from Nigella - "There is a vast difference between how things seem from the outside and how they feel on the inside".
I was walking through Town today and there are many differentiations between people: whether race, culture, fashion whether they were obvious or not. The expressions on their faces reflected to me their lives and in a way what they were thinking at that moment in time. Maybe using the quote above of the difference between how things seem from the outside and how they feel on the inside this may not be the case, but commonly the look and expression someone is portraying shows a real persona of who the person is, where they came from etc. Everyone is unique - there own person adapting to whoever they want to be to a certain extent, but we all are harbouring similar emotions and opinions of things but in a different mind set. People smile, but then others have that mysterious apprehensive look upon their faces, do people use emotions to cover their true selves. For all we know they could be the happiest or saddest person to themselves.
I don't think people should have to hide their emotions and thoughts, we should all have the freedom of expression and how we want to convey ourselves. Why shouldn't we be able to share these things with our peers, we all have similar insecurities, the same worries - it's life, it's the world.
