construction.

if you were to walk on the campus of my wonderful community college on any given week day, you would probably hear the rhythmic sound of a pipe being hammered into the ground. 

there is this also this one girl that i see on campus regularly. it is apparent that she is severely physically handicapped. she is not in a wheel chair, which surprises me. she walks in this very particular way. it looks so hard, and when you watch her, you can't help but be thankful that you can walk fast and straight.

but like i said - she walks in this particular way. if you watch her for longer than just a second, you will see that there is a pattern to how she moves. when i happened to notice, her pattern was identically matching that of that pipe going into the ground. she would go up when the hammer (for lack of a better term) would, and her foot would hit the ground the second the pipe did.

while i was in a daze of how weird it was that she was in perfect sync with that dang pipe, i was instantly averted to other places in mind.

my heart has been impacted greatly by my awesome friend christina - who wants so much of her heart to be donated to the bettering of education for the mentally and physically handicapped. she has taught me how valuable these lives are - and how they deserve just as much respect and love as every other person. 

when i saw this girl - the one with the different walk - it made me think about how we can judge people like her. it's easy for people to blow her off because she's so different from them. it's easy for us to think that we're "better" than others. 

but this girl was in perfect harmony with something else that i didn't notice one other person to be apart of.

maybe this is the case with so many others that we judge and label.

what if the people we typically consider to be too ..."different"... are the ones who are in perfect harmony with the one who created us to be in just that mode: apart of a romantic union with the one who loved us enough to save us.

hmm. what if?
