After All

To leave things (know them,
see them, anyway)
just the way you find them.

To find a way to care,
after all.


*********

You are loved and admired by many,
yet some seem indifferent,
others avoid you, get bored, or
even seem to be annoyed.

You should wonder why, but nobody who
likes to be happy ever worries about these
things too much.

(Another reason why life
resists being fair.)

Leaving the theater, the audience
happily astonished at the final twist in the
story.
