when we place value on only one part, the whole loses all value
we ignore the signs we think are not meant for us at our own peril
much of what we hear isn’t what is being said it’s time to listen
when two things appear at first glance to be the same we rarely look twice
nothing represents an idea or a place unless we let it
maybe the monkey represents human struggle but probably not
even in darkness there are signs of hope, if we are open to them
to see potential where others do not is where optimism grows
viewed as half-empty or half-full, either way it’s only half a glass
it’s not elegant but for what it needs to do it does perfectly
