World of Masks (मुखौटों की दुनिया)

English Translation of original post:

I have seen a strange fanciful passion: keeping numerous masks. No, these are not masks related to Covid 19 pandemic, but are masks of the faces worn to hide true emotions! It’s better to name them as Face Masks.

Worn through centuries, these face masks are used as per place, person, time, status, work, requirement, resources, money etc. My friend, one person has numerous face masks ranging from deceit, greed, lie, deception, anger to jealousy and much more. Within only one day, many face masks are applied and removed as per the necessity and I don’t understand how people carry these along?

Anyways, I hope one day I get to know the seller or the market of these masks. I strongly feel that I should also purchase a few for myself.

The thing is, in this World of Masks, I have often felt my real face getting exposed, robbed, hurt, injured and felt devastatingly cheated.
