Inhuman or too Human?

I have been a person that keeps to myself mostly all through my life. I realise it might be a bad thing or is it a boon? Makes people believe that you are nearly inhuman, feelingness? The art of expression is a must? or isn’t? Who to express too? and who to not?
"When you express you share, when you share, you pass on a portion of yourself, your happiness or grief to the other. "
Do you think at times - Is the other in that frame of mind where you can share? Or is he already bundled up with countless worries, and you will be adding to them?
I do, and mostly realise, every one has his share, and the decision making point of to share or not to share, has always tipped into the region of not sharing. Deciding not to share has its own set of issues, for then you have to be a perfect actor, and also willing to play it out, for if you don’t, then people will see through and you’ll be labelled as someone who hides things, someone who doesn’t trust and hence cant be trusted. However good a actor you are, there are hawk eyes, that can penetrate the mask, if you meet one, maybe that’s the person to share?
Coming back to why I am rambling, I was asked yesterday, do you remember your mom? Does she appear as a vision in front of you? Do you hear her? I just sat thinking, that being businesslike, just to forget the pain, gets you labelled in a different way?
