MAYBE TODAY...

MAYBE TODAY:

We will realize that we are not the most important people in the world. That yes, maybe our feelings hurt, sometimes they hurt so bad that pain becomes not only emotional, but physical. Eyes hurt from crying, lungs hurt from heaving sobs, abs hurt from forcing the tears out. And that's not the worst. We feel sick in our stomach, a pain that can only be imagined, because our head makes us feel worse than any physical pain could. Pain becomes physical and emotional, which is far stronger than a physical pain on its own.

But no matter what we believe...this pain will pass. It will be gone-maybe in a little while, maybe in a long time, but one day, it will have left us.

Meanwhile, while we forget that the world doesn't revolve around us, other people suffer. They starve, they get bullied, they get beaten, they get punished based on their gender, their race, their nationality, their religion.

Maybe today we will forget about ourselves. No that's not good enough...

Today I will forget about MYSELF.
Today I will worry about more important matters...
