people are strange .

sometimes when you get slapped in the face, you delude yourself by thinking it was a mere tender pat, and hell not only do you turn the other cheek, you do so with the most idiotic grin.

even when it's a vicious punch in the nose, you think its intention was still full on affection, so be it if it was a little too rough.

when truths are right in front of you, you may firmly state that you peered closely at it but cant see it, but in fact, all you did was to mess it up according to your own illusions to that it all becomes mosiac, and it's too hazy to be comprehended.

even when there are tingling doubts, you refuse to put a finger on them because you claim you dont know where their roots are, but it's only because you dont know how to extend your hand to point anymore.

and due to our insatiable appetites, we open our mouths begging to be fed, and even the crappiest food will taste like such 5 star culinary expert dish.

and when you're being taken for a ride, you're such a fool you just laugh and enjoy the ride.

................

my gawd, we all can seriously dream.

it amazes me, the way we can revolve situations till they are turned to our advantage.
my mouth hangs open at the extent at which we can delude ourselves till 'masking the truth' is more than an understatement.

i almost roar with laughter in ridicule.

yet, that laughter sounds so fake even to my own ears.
cant even fool myself for that.

because i know, at the end of the day, dreamers have nothing but their dreams to hold onto.
and dreamers, see what everyone else cannot.

fatal optimism?

it's called the threads of hope. the fragility of them cannot be seen. it's just a maybe, just maybe, if we dream hard enough, it may actually come true, admist all the scepticism, all the pessimists and cynics.

even if you're taken for a ride, ultimately, your patience and tolerance and utter stupidity actually pays off.

yes.. we all seriously know how to fantasize and dream.

even me.

the biggest dreamer in the world.
