So do you think I'm weird?
So do you think I'm weird, when I say that I simply can't face reality anymore? So do you think I'm weird, when I say that more than anything else, I just want to lay in bed all day, watch some unsignificant movie? When I read a newspaper article about a young woman who, struggling with life, hanged herself and her four children-aged 5, 3, 2 and 8 months-, do you think it's weird that I can't handle life anymore? When on a daily base innocent men and women are being killed in a meaningless war? When not even a 7 year old can be trusted, cuz (s)he might rob you?
It's not that I'm saying that the past was better, it was ..different.
Even though it's all so far away from me, this news knocks me over. Like a boxing glove in the middle of my face. And I fall and I can't get up anymore. I don't want to get up anymore. Afraid of the next punch. 1.2.3.4.5..I'm still k.o. on the ground. The World has won. Again.
The mother could have been my mother. The soldier could have been my friend. The 7 year old could have been my brother.
So do you? Do you feel the same? Or do you think I'm weird? Sometimes I think it should be good if more people felt this way. Yet other times I experience how peaceful and nice it can be to live in Denial.
And it makes me confused.
And very scared, when I realize that not always I have the solution.
