Musings on Adoration

Advertisements

By Leonard Pigg

Don’t bloody do it. 
Truth be known, at least seventy percent of the time you will be let down. 
I’ve loved and admired quite a few people the past few years and the majority have fallen so short, I began to question my own taste in people. 
I admire someone for their style, intellect, convictions and then soon find they really don’t have any of those things.It seems to be a massive facade, conducted in secret and somehow, I seem to be the only one that notices it. 
I saw myself surrounded by friends masquerading as thieves, hypocrites, addicts and raving sociopaths. 
I will continue to revel in my outsider status and ignore my first inclinations. 
Remember the correlation between perception and reality? If not, just remember that when you were a child, movies seemed real. 
As you became older, awareness changed and you realized that the fantasy worlds were not real, just special effects or complicated makeup. 
I suppose the best bet is to believe in oneself, everyone else is just a beard’s tug from being a Santa Claus at the mall.
