Tragedy is an Oddly Spelled Word.

There's a tragedy about this life.

I'm certain your minds are racing to come up with a reasonable explanation to that statement.. Or maybe not. Maybe I'm still the only one reading this blog. But that's okay ;)

So what's the tragedy? Well simply put, the tragedy is our perspectives. We favor things, though sometimes unintentionally. When a standard is set, once an expectation is created, that's when it all fails.  Because this is a tragedy, and this is your cue to cry.

Crying yet? Why not? Is it because you are completely apathetic to the idea of being a limitless open book? Okay, that's fine. Or is it because you don't quite understand?

Think about it. Why didn't the movie rock your world? Maybe because you've seen better.. because you know there was greater potential? Your boss bothers you, huh? The one before wasn't so bad now that you think about it, right?

Yes, this is a rant. About nothing in particular.. Just a slight venting. I just cannot wrap my mind around the concept of disappointment. There's nothing sensible about it. To compare one thing to another.. Nothing is the same! How is that fair? How can it be that we can compare one job we've had to another? Or the people that have come and gone in our lives... How are they even comparable? There is so much value in one life. Every word a person speaks went through their own mind process and was selected to be spoken. They have parents.. A family that loves them. They've each lived different days than you and I. They've seen things I might never see in my life. They love people I cannot begin to fathom. They have aspirations and thoughts that differ from mine. So who are you to group us in the same category and call us the same?

No one. It's just another role in this tragic misunderstanding. Maybe our comprehension of value has diminished. Or maybe we're all just a little short-sighted. Maybe I'm just ranting on and on to try to find some significance in an idea that is already a mute point. Maybe? For now, here goes absolutely nothing.
