A fallen sparrow is what I feel right now. A broken wing that doesnt lift me higher but brings me lower and lower down. Sparrows fly with pride, sparrows fly with dignity, sparrows fly grace.
Here I am, pride broken, dignity lost,grace stolen. Have you ever felt like you have a flaw, a flaw that you didnt really want, and its hard for you to change, and once you show it and people see it. That turns out to be the the only weapon for others when they need to pull you down. Its like this poor boy who has this face that irritates people, thus he gets bullied... Its not like he can change his face when he wants to. Even if he undergo plastic surgery, it takes time!
I am always trying to be perfect(open your eyes and you'll see my efforts), though perfection is not within reach, but you can try to be close perfect. During then, I was flying, I had this fresh air in my chest called pride, that made we walk tall trying to ignore the flaw that I have inside or hide it from the outside world. So when someone who already knows the flaw that is inside suddenly brings it up unintentionally, it does hurt you. Kills your pride, brings you down.
Thus, with this flaw, this single flaw, you dont earn any respect? Does dignity have to be flushed down the toilet too?
Anyway, I do believe that everytime when people have problems when they are together, be it talking or any for of civilised activity. It brings forth a new beginning for reconciliation. It takes compromising from both sides. I am ready to compromise. I know what it is like to be in your shoe, I understand what your motives, your feelings, your actions, your behaviour, your character, your background.. I understand you (to a certain extend or at least I try to). I have empathy. But are you ready to fill in my crampy old sneakers?
