I feel too much kinship in this post not to re-blog it. Take me out from behind the screen and I can be a clam.
A lily grooms herself night after night to bloom at the first dawn, but a bear goes all macho and sucks honey at one go from the honeycomb. A baby bird flaps her delicate wings and attempts to fly, day after day so it could one day soar high above in the sky, but a cub’s first attempt at a roar is louder than the lawn mower’s first gear.
Why is that I have to prepare a hundred days to say ‘H-h-hello’ but one day a bastard comes and recites a giant joke with perfect pauses in the same go.
I am angry and I am sad because life’s not fair. And since life’s not fair I cheat.
I practice saying ‘hello’ 1000 times in the mirror
‘H-h-hello, hhello, h-ello,hello. Hello!’
‘hello,hello,hello,hello,hello,hello,hello!’
