Non-retractable

You know cat-claws? They can retract and extend them very conveniently, right? Tongues, are probably the opposite. They are swords that are not sheathe-able. So imagine a very, very, very sharp sword floating at around neck-height, slitting many throats as it swings around aimlessly, sometimes there's an occasional stab.

You know cracks? They can't be mended right?

So, I guess I understand why certain parents train their children to be absolutely perfect. Perfection means no cracks, no mistakes or accidents. Amazing right? It would be, if it were only possible. Sorry, but no matter how you aim for it, perfection always eludes you. Only God can be perfect. I don't mean we shouldn't aim for perfection, but we shouldn't expect it. It's okay to be very strict with ourselves and our children, but I think for others we have to be very lenient. I agree that training must be very strict, but once a mistake has been made, I see no point in getting upset over it, especially when it's not you who did it. (sorry is a password to many doors) You know those type of tinted windows that allow light out but no light in? (Actually I'm not sure if that is correct. You can see out but you can't see in. You can see because light enters your eyes. But yet less light is coming in..Maybe more light is reflected on the thing outside and then reflected to ur eyes even though very little. And less light enters and reflects on the things inside hence less light travels to eyes on the outside..) I digress. Anyway, imagine the light is anger. More light should shine on us then others. So, figuratively speaking, we are standing on the outside of the glass and other people are on the inside darker side of the glass.

I'm sorry if my ideas aren't making sense.

Anyway, it's cool to know that there are things you can never erase. It's fair because it applies for good and bad things. On the other hand there are those people with selective memories...

Good memory is important. Who knows the amount of promises people forget each day?
