Disillusionment
Last night I came face to face with a gaggle of 14 year old teenage girls trapped in the bodies of 50 year old women. I do realize that I'm the idiot/fool here, to have expected maturity to come with age, but it was still something of a shock to suddenly be plunged back into middle school. Like waking up abruptly from a nap on the beach because some imp dumped a bucket of ice cold ocean water over my sun-warmed back, I was suddenly jolted out of my fantasy world and faced with a circle of avid, malicious, judgemental faces again. Just as petty and disturbing, but with more wrinkles now.No wonder this world is on the verge of self-annihilation.
