In the course of events, Some people are destined for certain things. Vague, yes I know but let me ramble on for another eight or so lines and I think I will be able to make myself clear. Some are born with great ability or a predisposition to good, and they become the firefighters, the policemen, the astronauts, they defend, they are our heroes. Others are born with a the need to destroy and demolish all things good or bad. They become the very worst of the criminals the villains.
For the rest of us it's not so clear cut where we are supposed to fall, we strive to land in one category or the next but always seem to end up in some weird shade of gray. It's the gray that scares us. We want to label something black or white because then we know how to treat it, but it's a little bit harder to label gray because there is so many different shades of gray that we wouldn't know where to begin. I know now that I fall into this gray area, apparently I am a good person, with many virtues, that possess dark qualities but that all depends on which angle the light is hitting me from.
Then we have the gray moments in life, where something happens and you aren't sure whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, or just a thing. One sentence could bring solace to one person, be humorous to the next person, and be incredibly hurtful to another. It's hard and confusing living in the gray but I suspect that I can't live any other way.
If I had my way, we would all embrace the Gray. The uncertainty adds to the spice of life, and on the flip side the unknown is quite scary. With each passing day, one could go from anticipation to terror, and I think that's the best part of the story. In an unexpected turn of events the gray has left me in a state of uncertainty.
Cheers and Undefined Teddy Bears!
