Attention

 

Why do human beings need attention so desperately?

What is it about us that needs to be recognized and known, appreciated and loved?

Why can't we be like the trees, tall and solid, stalwart and silent?

Or like water running gaily down life's way, rippling and sparkling without a care, or need, in the world?

I am like a flicker of sunlight.

When I'm happy my smile can light up a room, but the merest flicker of a shadow changes me completely.
