looking at the back (or is it the front)

its funny how, as life unfolds, you end up looking at something, and wondering what hte heck it really is... if anything.

ok, so that might have been fairly ambiguous and illogical, but imagine you walk up to a store that you have been going to for a long time... you come up to the door, and for the first time you notice a small blue sign just to the left of the enterence:



the sense that you feel at that moment is what i am feeling.

what if everything in life that i have been looking at has been done the "wrong way"?

...

what if thats why i see things differently?

when everyone else is looking at the front, im looking at the back and thinking of it as something wholly different than what it was designed to be...

a ball becomes a chair

a CD becomes a wall-ornament

a box of kleenex becomes a portal into another world.


the possibilities are endless, and what is more- unbelievably interesting and quite often profound.
