I say to you,my friend
i said to one of my friends that it takes so much courage to learn to like,even love oneself.
she simply replied"yes", and then she told me when she was a school girl,she disliked herself so much that she even thought about suicide.
"and you know what?" she said,after a short period of silence,"even now,i still can not like myself.i even don't know how to try."
i watched the screen of notebook for quite a while,still had no idea about how to console her.
i said they're all saying 'there are so many beautiful bodies,while interesting souls are so few," i said,"either i'm a boring guy,or they are lying."
she laughed,and said "of course they're lying,you little sweet fool."
i changed the topic.
recently i just can't help recalling something,and some people.i dreamed that when things hadn't gone that bad,i stood before her,looking into her eyes with sadness full of my heart.but eventually,i still said nothing.
no hug,no talk,no greeting.
i dare not to do that even in my dreams.
all i dare to ask for seems just standing before her,looking into her eyes,once again.
maybe that's already enough.
i said to you,my friend
so even we face difficulty of today and tomorrow
i still have a dream
it is a dream deeply rooted in my heart
i have a dream that one day we can love,ourselves and people we truly love,without the consideration or the pressure of reality
i have a dream that one day we can be free,everyone can live a life whatever he likes,without the orders or the criticism from others
i have a dream that one day we can survive without sacrificing so much things we cherish
and when this happens,all of the God's children,male or female,young or old,will sing the words of an old spiritual
Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty,we are free at last! |
