I am beginning to believe that it takes someone wiser than us to surprise us. Although, maybe "surprise" is not the word I should be using. Let's see....."surprise" - "shock" - "blow your hair back" - is in essence, "revealing" - "mind blowing" - no that's too much, I'm going to say "mind opening." Yes that it's, it takes someone wiser than us to open our minds. Or at least open our minds on a specific matter. Wise people (and I am speaking from the unwise end) can enlighten others to a way of thinking that the person knew deep down was right, but just has not yet thought of it themselves. Wise people can see faults in almost everyone, but have enough understanding to not use it as a thumbscrew. Some people say this is tolerance, but tolerance implies the person disagrees. That is not the case in understanding. The understanding does not have to tolerate.
When my hair gets blown back it is a cross between feeling childish and solving a brain teaser. This feeling happens most times when I read, but it's more powerful coming from a person. And personally......I kind of enjoy the feeling! Later.
