I may have exaggerated for effect, he wasn't actually all that nervous I think that his laugh was at the ridiculous conditions. There was a reason it was only two of us in line, it was really cold and really windy up there. <br /><br />As to the deep void, it's only deep because we let it be. I feel like people want to be different, and we don't like being understood because it makes us less unique. If I were completely predictable then I wouldn't be very motivated to do much at all. We are constantly living to separate ourselves and find our "inner self." It's almost like people are looking for whatever it is that makes them different, that's what they call the self. In light of those differences we ignore the simple things that make us similar. That's more the point I was making, not necessarily that I understood his emotions.McKinley Withershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14147073832599389838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782155046749928492.post-13351077244925682952010-11-27T08:46:23.027-08:002010-11-27T08:46:23.027-08:00But how do you know that Japanese man was sharing ...But how do you know that Japanese man was sharing the same feelings as you? Maybe he was feeling angry and that's what you read as nervousness.<br /><br />I think you're right that humans are simple, but that doesn't mean it's easy to understand another person. The void between people is pretty deep.Pr1nc3_Ch4rmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642966361688231493noreply@blogger.com
