A simple question on the surface.
A complex question in practice.
Externally, you hear "I'm good!"
Internally, I'm holding back the burden.
How you doing?
A polite greeting for the average.
A stress inducing greeting for the troubled.
Publicly, it's answered "I'm perfect!"
Privately, I'm pushing down the pain.
Are you good?
A friendly check-in to the uninitiated.
A revealing check-in to the instituted.
I'll always answer "I'm fine!"
I'll always hide the need for help.
