Beautiful World

When I woke up early in the morning today, I just strolled out to the balcony. Through the dense fog, I saw three puppies cuddled up with each other and when I looked closely enough, I could swear they were...smiling. I saw people jogging with their earphones plugged in and enjoying the morning. I could hear the birds chirping away....almost like they were trying to tell me something. The sun had just risen and the sky was red and beautiful. I just stood there watching and letting the warmth of the morning sun soak up on me. The day was just beginning. My brother still asleep....not long before my mom jerks him awake. I walk in and slowly crawl into my bed, under my bedsheets....It's a beautiful world.

“What a strange world we live in...Said Alice to the Queen of hearts”

I often wonder why we live in such an unpredictable place. Sometimes everything is crowding in on you and you feel suffocated, so you hunch in on something small, certain and....safe. The world is such a jumble and sometimes you have to scream, but people look at you and...talk about you. Even when you aren't there, you know exactly what they're saying. Bottom line...they aren't different and they would give anything to scream it all out. I think that's what I find strange about this world. Nobody ever says how they really feel. They hurt but they don't cry out. They're happy but they don't dance around in joy. They're angry but they don't scream....because they're ashamed. So we just walk around with our heads bent and never look up to see how beautiful the sky is.

Strange yet beautiful world
