If our live’s stories were books
Then I would say that most of the people you are going to meet
will only read the blurb
A few might take a peek at the index and headlines to get an overview
Even less will go online and do a little research there
Check reviews and short summaries
And probably only a very, very small group will dive into the whole story
Because If you really want to get to know a person you have to do just that
Word after word
Page after page
Chapter after Chapter
That also means the boring, lengthy parts
And those that might be disturbing to you
And those you do not understand at all
Only if you get through till the end will you get a grasp of the complexity of the whole
And I wish that you will find at least one person
who will read your story as thoroughly as that
And I hope that you will do the same for them
