BEYOND A SURFACE

Odd hair; clothes and perhaps tattoos do make a person stand out. Most definitely. But that is all window dressing. The true nature of a person is when you sit down and talk. That’s where the interest starts as you see the love for rare music or comics from someone who appears nothing more then a wall flower. A hard nose biker who enjoys the works of Adam Sandler. The grieving sadness of a stranger for another stranger. Or the insight of God from a waitress working a diner that serves vegetarian tacos.

My point is that the beauty of a person is the passion within. The definition lies beyond the window dressing. We can see so much by just talking and listening. A pretty penny in a bucket of nickels we forget to check because it’s too hard to check with the eyes when the heart and soul can do the work if we let it. The individual is key. All the details must be thought to see a clear picture.

Amplifying a quality ignoring the rest gives only a faded outline. Tossing one into a pile of millions as 'A FILL IN THE BLANK' with no apparent desire to know more is a disservice allowing segregation of sorts to grow even deeper. Everybody in different groups sure the other is an enemy never seeing anything that connects us just what makes us different.

Solo islands sink because no one can do everything unless your title is CHRIST then go ahead. Otherwise talk to each other. Starts with a person not a massive power wash to make change.

Always risky of a water blast missing parts or destroying stuff too. We should stand together not behind cause each of us is like no one else after the title counting is done. Like a chain. What else is there to do but get old and perhaps rust, talk.
