Truth is like a well in the desert. Most people ignore it completely, even though they are thirsty. Some people curse what they see as an eyesore above the ground. Some resent having to go around it. Some notice it and think it’s nice: this stone wall built in a circle. Some sketch it in a pad and walk away. A few come closer and see the opening, sensing water in its depths. Some find the water, drink — and are satisfied.
Thank you for being the tall, cool, satisfying drink of water in the desert of the life I had carved out with my mind. Forever grateful for the interruption.
