- The human mind is a fragile thing. People build their entire lives on a foundation of lies that could crumble in an instant. People today are so wrapped up in their own humanly attractions that they don't care who they are hurting, everyone alike. When you think about it, there is a liar in all of us, hiding our broken hearts. The happy mask we wear fabricated of inconveinent truths and lies protect us from ourselves. It prevents us from reaching out to others and showing the love we so desperately need. All of us have an internal pain, a suppressed sorrow that lingers behind our eyes when we smile, a secret we keep to ourselves and only address when we have reached the bottom. Life without the belief of a God above us all would be unbearable for so many people. Someone who loves and accepts us no matter how much we feel forgotten, hated, lied to, and mistreated. When we are children, we are completely dependent on other people to survive. We are shown unconditional attention and affection and the truth is, we never really stop being a child. We crave that love long after we have grown and never truly get it. All through our lives, most people attempt to fill these longings with objects, addictions, and other empty fillers with no meaning and in the end are left more broken than where they started. We shouldn't be afraid to show our love for one another. Every day could be our last day and if we did die, would you be happy with how you lived your life? Or will you reflect on all the things left undone, loves left unspoken. The real happiness we seek cannot be found in material things, only through love.

Paragraph format would have been better, and it would be better without the religious inclusion. Grammar and punctuation are well-implemented.

- Honestly, I think life would be better without a God/s. Nothing to give us false hopes after we die. Nothing to waste our money and time on. But, to each it's own.
