Life (an essay)

 A person puts on a face to let other people see him and like him.  But, what are the feelings inside him?  Are they good, bad, indifferent?  The answer cannot be told, except by the person himself.  A person might think that he knows all there is to know about another person.  Does he?  The answer lies with the person he knows.  If he knows all the facts about a person from the time that he is born to the time that he dies and does not know the innermost feelings, then all of his knowledge is worthless.  Sometimes, he might get bits of information on the feelings, but usually that isn't enough.  What is enough?  To know the whole person--not just the facts but the feelings as well.  This is true Life.
