See for Yourself

 

As I have done before after reading


one page, I turn to another. I’ve just


got to see what comes next.



And before I know it, I keep turning


pages again to see that which I have


not seen before.



That, my friends, is how we get


through life, turning pages to see


what comes next.



To say this is the way of life would


be metaphorically trite. Seems to


me I recall reading this story before.



I didn’t like the way it ended the


first time. Left me in suspended


animation wanting for more.



Instead, I turn to a blank page at


the last, leaving life itself up to


my vivid imagination.



And then the thought, who shall


know what I know? Well, you’ll just


have to read it and see for yourself.



It’s that hardbound, blue book on


the shelf over there. Bring it back


in good shape when you’re done.
