I believe in the
unpredictability of
human existence.
I believe that what one
says does not always reflect
what they mean or
think or
feel.
When a man looks at his
wife and says
“She is beautiful,” he really means
“She is my universe; her mind bustling like
a metropolitan city during
rush hour is displayed perfectly
within her golden or
caramel or
obsidian locks, her
sweet or
sly or
mischievous smile.”
When a teacher says
“This student requires special
attention,” they really mean
“This child’s mind thinks unlike
those around him, like
a car going east on a
westbound road, or the sight of
iced beverages when
a blizzard toils on endlessly.
He is not
deficient, but
different.”
Likewise, when a politician says
“We are working on a solution,”
they mean “We do not know
what this nation needs. We are just
people divided by
clashing ideals formed at the
dawn of our nation, which have been
warped with age and
consciousness and
the world around it. We are the
source of
the nations problems and the
only hope of resolving the
nation’s problems.”
When a little child says
nothing, what they really think is
“I see you. I see who you talk to. I
understand your words but am
afraid of admitting I
understand your words. I am
unsure of sharing my thoughts because
I am just a child, and I’ve been told
children don’t know
anything of the
real world.”
If only people said what they
mean or think or
feel. Because I believe if they
did, our world wouldn’t
crumble under the consciousness of
all it has corrupted, but be
fortified by all of the beauty it
sets free.
