If there were such a thing as something say other then science would you believe it? Yes I am talking about heaven and hell and maybe a few other things. I remember when I was very little a man once asked me if I believed in magic. I was six and probably until I was about nine every year when I blew out the candles on my birthday cakes I would wish for a winged unicorn, so technically you could say yes I believed.
What I am getting at is this. I watch most people I come in contact with and I see how they only view the world with a strict eye. Growing up we are told what to believe in and taught accordingly. I guess I was always that weird kid with the vivid imagination that asked way too many questions in Sunday school. I see so many things differently and in a way I am realizing the rest of the world can not. Maybe I am not crazy and over emotional. Maybe just maybe at some point in my young age I decided to take some other path, the more creative one; the path that opened my senses to the true world around me. A world that is liberating, gracious and beautiful. I have also witnessed the darker side of this world and sometimes it is horrific. There are others like me. I am sure they grew up struggling to fit in just as much as I did. Society does not understand us so they claim us as crazy or some other harsh words I really care not to share. But we are here and we see all the things you can not. Oh how I wish you could see them…
You would have to let it all go first and I am wondering to myself now if you could do that.
You never really understood me but then again neither has the rest of society. Maybe one day I can show you the real me, not the façade I was taught to live behind…
