[LJ2ME] Van-Go & Music Inspired
Have you ever walked down a street that is very familar to you, and all of a sudden it seems foreign to you? The houses are painted a diffrent shade. The cars have changed shape and form. The trees are dark and leafless. Even the asphalt on the street itself has potholes and craters and cracks. The sky a dismal navy covered with a deep grey haze of mist. What has happened to the once beautiful street you lived on? What if the answer is simple and plain? Nothing. Its been this way all along. The veil has been lifted and the once beautiful street revealed its true colors. If this is what it truly is, then there is no beauty to be found anywhere. But this is where reality sets in and you close your eyes. Despair and sorrow fills your mind, body, and soul. A tear rolls down your cheek.
Then a voice says, "Open your eyes!".
You slowly open them and are instantly blinded by the overpowering glare of the sun. You wildly respond. Shading your eyes as everything comes into prospective. The sky a light blue. Birds flying in the traditional "V" formation. The houses painted a welcoming hue. The cars clean and pristine, gleaming and shimmering in the day light. The street, evenly paved, not a stone nor pebble out of place. You ask yourself, "What happened?". The voice responds "The world is as YOU see it. If you see it as depressing and dull, it will be so. But if you are full of hope and happiness, you will see the true beauty in front of you."
At that moment, a rose grew from the asphalt.
