Who/what are strangers?
I just realized reading today's different Blog posts, that "strangers" is an unfamiliar term for me.
Convinced that I am a part of all and that all is a part of me, nothing and no one is strange.
Now, if I were a member of one exclusive of another or all, some would be strangers.
I to them and they to me.
I sometimes think I may be strange or a stranger to some.
I'm not sure who or what I would consider strange.
Different? Unique?
I consider the parts of my body. Except for the pairs, one part does not look or act like another but is not strange.
Each together is truly ONE.
How do I feel about that?
Whole.
I was thinking about how I'm a stranger even to myself sometimes, but I love this perspective. There are no strangers, not really, but perhaps that's because everything is strange.
ReplyDeleteRhetorical questions:
ReplyDeleteYeah, like normal might be insane; strange might be normal. Or is normal strange?
This has recently happened to me. I've been tested and told that I am normal.
Is that why for most of my life I've felt that I don't fit? Am I normal in an abnormal world?
Would I fit better, if I were abnormal?
Should I celebrate normalcy or mourn?
I love your questions, and I think the answer depends on the moment in which they're asked.
ReplyDeletemay nabasa ako before:
ReplyDeletethere's really no stranger 'coz all of us were connected.
as for living in a normal world:
the world isn't normal unless you've learn to accept all the craziness in it. :D
pARE..BASE SA NAGAWA KONG BLOG POST TUNGKOL DYAN DATI...strangers ay yung uri ng kaibigan kung saan kakamustahan mo lang at katanguan mo pag nasalubong mo sa daan... sila yung nakasama mo minsan sa isang lugar at nakakwentuhan. pero walang information sa isa't-isa...
ReplyDeletei believe, strangers are friends you haven't meet.
ReplyDelete@mokong i call them acquaintance
btw, thanks for visiting and commenting on my blog
johnonline - yeah
ReplyDeletethere are no strangers only friends you haven't met.
nabasa ko na to nun'g uminom ako ng tubig pagkatapos ko mag buhat. hehe : )
we decide who are the strangers, we define strangers - it is relative, it is like love, we don't really know whether it's really there or not.
ReplyDeleteIt is our human instinct to know the unknown, while in fact there's none.
the way i see it
ReplyDeletewe are all strangers
mahirap kilalanin ang kapwa
laging may pretensions
btw, kamusta kayo?
baha ba?
hope you and your loved ones are safe and dry
I remember what my mom is always saying before - "Don't talk to strangers" ^_^
ReplyDeleteStrangers get bonded due to a significant event sometimes. Tulad ngayon, dahil kay Ondoy, maraming magkakapit-bahay na dating di nag-uusap ang nagdadamayan.
