as she set herself comfortably on the surgical chair, watching in anticipation as the doctor applies the scanning gel on her tummy. like a symphony of percussion, her heart beat along in unison with the recurring purr of the ultrasound machine. and as the doctor pointed out on the screen, indicating that the tiny, squirming figure, her heart skipped a beat.
like a pregnant lady meeting her fetus for the very first time via ultrasound scanning, i suppose that's how we all feel when we first stumble upon someone, or something very special.
it's a feeling that we can never really describe, but deep down we know that whatever this feeling is, we know that it's that one incitement factor that makes us want to hold on to this very special someone, or something.
as the child grows older, he/she learns new things and adapts to the environment. that child may grow up to be a mummy's boy or possibly even the psychotic serial killer that you never thought would have been living with all this while.
when your child has erred, will you still love him as he was, when he was an angel?
when your lover has erred, will you still love him like when he still loved only you?
when your friends have erred, will you still trust them like when they still hadn't betrayed you?
somehow or rather, humans are very selfish creatures. even though they stand atop the food chain in the ecosystem, they still yearn for more, for more power, more authority, more respect.
when lying no longer becomes a gentle kind gesture of preventing hurt, when lying has become your soul purpose of attaining personal gain.
if you have lied for your own personal gain, then i suppose i may no longer be able to trust you. because i after all, am nothing but another selfish human just like you.
