Sometimes we experience things that shatter part of our world. As human beings, we are self-centered individuals. We tend to think that we know how other people think or act, or what their motives are. Some of us, like myself, have always given others the benefit of the doubt; assuming that most people are good, decent people. But every now and then we discover something. Something that flaunts our convictions, our illusions. Something that makes you realize you don't know anyone at all, not truly. It makes you grateful for the friendships and the relationships that you have, the ones that are close enough that you can begin to get that glimmer of another individual's soul, of what makes them tick. Sometimes it's not a good glimmer. But that is life. You can only hope that you can create a ray of sunshine bright enough to reach in and let some light in to someone else's soul.
Like Fun sings... "Though I've never been through hell like that, I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back... if you're lost and alone, or you're sinking like a stone, carry on. May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground. Carry on, carry on."
