Naivety or innocence?

The Great Kateri

 

Is it naivety or innocence?

Part of me roots for the easy one - let her choose the safe one, the stable one

But when movie ends, I see that who she chose was right for her from the beginning

When I repeat it from this perspective, it’s a whole new world

The tension, the yearning … utter devotion and dedication this choice had for her

The love in subtle ways I didn’t see before…

What part of me grew up thinking safe is good? How many things have I not seen because of this?

Which now makes me wonder …. Who made me think that naivety and innocence is good sometimes?

    The world we live in whether we like it or not for too many people have made privacy and freedom an impossible thing. Democracy two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. Communism taking from the worker to give to the lazy, socialism a breed between the two with all the liabilities of both. Anarchism an army without a general and monarchy subject to the luck of the draw. Well written
