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?
