I'm not sure what to write tonight. I wish I could just convey what my mind is thinking in a beautiful, powerful, emotional way. I watched the movie Radio tonight with one of my roomates, and I am amazed to say that it is the only movie I have ever cried during. Two tears, but it was still crying. :) Why is it that we condemn those who are different than us; those who have mental and physical problems. As I sat here tonight, I was overwhelmed with a sudden realization. Those people do not KNOW how to do wrong. They are perfect, beautiful spirits trapped inside of crippled, non-functioning bodies here on this earth. They are celestial. Why do we tease and judge those who are so pure and innocent? What beautiful, beautiful spirits they have. Their spirits are not tarnished in any way. They do not have the capability to intentionally hurt, tease, and wound people as we do. I came away from this movie with a tear streak down down my face and a smile on it too. We have a few things yet to learn from those who have the greatest lessons to teach us. Open your eyes and seek those lessons. They are not hard to find. Most of the time they come at you with open arms and a smile on their faces.
