Well, ok, I sat through the whole thing. Now I'm left to wonder about what's real and what isn't. Are the things I think about my own thoughts, or a product of some kind of political or economic manipulation?
It's been said that I am somewhat "wonderous" and "childlike" in my opinions here, this eventhough I am no child. However, as i once saw that as a problem, I no longer do. I am not as well read as most here. I am also not as well informed. I don't watch a lot of TV, nor do I listen to a radio. The first time I saw a computer, a mobile phone, the internet, was only 2 years ago.
Maybe this is not a bad thing. Maybe my opinions seem wonderous and childlike merely because they are unhindered by popular opinion, the news, the political goings on in the world. Maybe it's just because they really do reflect values and ideologies that are as close to really being my own as social isolation can make them.
Something to really think about though, is'nt it.

In the end, darlin', who really sees clearer than a child? |

Perhaps. But a child can't run the world.
