I think I miss out a lot of things in life.
Very rarely do I get the opportunity to know others around me as well as I wish to. The result is the two-dimensionality which I view most people in. They are there, with a personal set of descriptions, and often, also assumptions to fill in the unknown, missing gaps with. Missing information is interpolated, extrapolated and perhaps even fabricated.
Two-dimensional figures, all around me.
Yet there are also those who have bestowed upon me valuable insights into their very person, be it consciously or unknowingly so, and gradually they begin to leave that two-dimensional space, finally attaining a three-dimensional form.
That three-dimensional form is so much more vivid, so much more functional and beautiful. It's a pity many don't exist in this way.
Yet I cannot blame anyone for not allowing to grow into a more complete person in my mind. I think I, too, am guilty of barricading myself to others' eyes. Especially so to those who do not seek and those whom I do not trust or are unsure of trusting.
A picky person, I am.
