Each smiling face

Remember the show I watched, "Infamous"?

Back then I've spoken of how sometimes there are people whom are doing you in, but you let them because you desperately want to believe that this is a person whom cares, and is doing what he is doing because it is his method of concern, even when you do not understand how it is?

It is certainly a point to be upset about if you step back and realise that this person is not only on your side, he is on shore shooting at your boat, willing it to capsize.

I lost count how many of such 'friends' I have in my life.

To counter this, I tend to take every single bit of concern I receive with a large pinch of skepticism. I look at each smiling face and wonder what is lying behind that apparent joy - is it a facade which would crumble upon scrutinise?
