One lifetime isn't enough to love you...
... as Ziggy Marley sang tonight.
And I guess he's right. We'll need a few to get it right.
It's nobody's fault. My mother always taught me it was rude to point my finger. Well, it's also hurtful, so I'm not going to do it. There's no sense in it, anyhow.
You see, I hear things, and I interpret them my own way. And so does everyone else.
When I hear, "I can't have fun if I know you are feeling bad", I read too much into that.
So when I say something like - "You're having fun - stay."... well, it's not like I can expect anyone to understand anything beyond that. Everyone understands and interprets the world in their own fashion, and that's how it should be. What would be a world without plurality?
If somebody is genuinely having fun, and I'm genuinely miserable, I guess the way it works is that I should let those that are having fun continue to do so, and stop being a wet blanket.
Well, as cliche as it is, I do understand the meaning of this saying, now:
"When you laugh, the world laughs with you - When you cry, you cry alone"
I have a feeling I've blogged about this before, perhaps a long time ago. I hope the lesson sinks in this time. Maybe I should just learn to laugh more. Maybe I should learn to not be bothered by anything. Not let things get to me. Not to be affected by anything. Could that be a good life?
Maybe by the next lifetime I'll learn that crying in the middle of a concert venue isn't a great idea.
But in any case: I know we'll try again...good night...
