Have you ever watched small children playing? Have you
noticed how sometimes they stand with their heads down
between their legs? Looks strange, I know, but the world is
so upside down, anyway, that I wonder if those kids don't
have the right idea. Observing all the funny little things
will do as the blood rushes to their heads.
Everything would be different. Would it be terrible?
Dreadful? Or would it straighten everything out? Would it be
funny? Maybe scary?
Sometimes, for me, things seem so messed up that I think if
we did turn everything on its head, life would become easier
to understand. Or would things be all the more blurred and
confusing?
Would I get a headache if I played as the children do? In
truth, the way the world is now, it can give me a headache,
anyway.
I wonder what we'd all look like walking around with our
heads down there. Silly? Don't we all look a bit silly just
the way we are? At least sometimes...
For sure, we would look different. Would that be good or bad?
You know, I think it would be just the same as it is
normally. Things could be tolerable, excellent or absolutely
awful. It would just depend on our attitude.
Someone could find something they'd lost; someone could lose
something they'd found.
Really, the only way to understand anything, the only real
way to have any idea of what's going on is not to look up or
down or between our legs, but in our hearts.
All answers can be found, all decisions decided, if only we
would realize that however we look at the world, Hashem is
the One ultimately deciding how it all looks.
