Ok, so, my last post was about what I want. All of that still applies. This post will be about what I am not. At least, not yet. I remain hopeful. If you’re confused – and you probably are – keep reading.
First, before I can really explain, you should watch this video, and then continue reading what’s below it.
Now, you may have indeed watched it, but did you really see it? Did you truly listen to it?
Since you’re all caught up, here’s what I am not.
I am not good enough, pure enough, decent enough, or worthy enough to bear witness to art that is that beautiful.
It’s a bit of a sobering thought, but it’s true. I don’t deserve to get to experience something like that. I don’t really know how (or why) I’ve been deemed lucky enough to get to experience it anyway, and I don’t really know whether my being cognizant of this is a blessing or a curse.
But, as I said above, I remain hopeful. I don’t know what the process is here, or how I’m supposed to reconcile any of this with myself, but I’m trying. I can be better. We all can be.
