Let Me Be Misunderstood!

As long as people are going to call you lunatic anyway, why not get the benefit of it? It liberates you from convention. Gregory Maguire

Read it with sorrow and you will feel hate.
Read it with anger and you will feel vengeful.
Read it with paranoia and you will feel confusion.
Read it with empathy and you will feel compassion.
Read it with love and you will feel flattery.
Read it with hope and you will feel positive.
Read it with humor and you will feel joy.
Read it with God and you will feel the truth.
Read it without bias and you will feel peace.
Don't read it at all and you will not feel a thing.
Shannon L. Alder

I have often wondered why people are afraid to be misunderstood, isn't it a cage to be caught like a bird? Why fly? Reading through the quote of Shannon L. Alder its quite evident that the experience of truth depends on the state of mind one is present with at the time of contact with information.
