The "mask of happiness" is a metaphor for hiding one's true emotions behind a façade of cheerfulness. It suggests that people often present a happy exterior to the world while concealing their inner struggles, pain, or sadness. This can be due to societal pressures, personal insecurities, or a desire to protect others from their troubles. Wearing this mask can be exhausting and may prevent genuine connections, as it involves suppressing one's authentic self. It highlights the importance of empathy and understanding, as outward appearances can be deceiving, and many people may be dealing with more than they let on.
