This Bitter Earth – On the Nature of Daylight Lyrics
This Bitter Earth – On the Nature of Daylight Lyrics
This bitter earth
Well, what a fruit it bears
This bitter earth
And if my life is like the dust
Ooh, that hides
The glow of a rose
What good am I?
Heaven only knows
Lord, this bitter earth
Yes, can be so cold
Today you’re young
Too soon, you’re old
But while a voice within me cries
I’m sure someone may answer my call
And this bitter earth
Ooh, may not, oh, be so bitter after all
This bitter earth
Lord, this bitter earth
What good is love
Mmm, that no one shares?
And if my life is like the dust
Ooh, that hides the glow of a rose
What good am I? (What good am I?)
Heaven only knows

“People are afraid of what they don’t understand.”
Is there a right and a wrong way to understand someone? I often ponder this question. The foundation rests in the capacity to care for the influencer. We have many people in our lives but who has made an impact on your life? Who has influenced you to try something new? Helped you through a hard time? Gave great advice or was just there to listen? These people are influencers in your life; small or large.
Then there are those who have next to no influence in your life. These people are meaningless in the capacity of influence. Of course we still care for them however they are not a character in your movie.
Back to the question at hand:
Is there a right and a wrong way to understand someone?
We seek to understand the ones who influence our lives but everyone else receives the opposite end of the spectrum. And because of this reason we become afraid. If a concerted effort was exercised to understand the non-influencers in our lives our awareness would broaden. Thus the spectrum widens its rays of light. What we think to be true of someone could in fact prove to be the opposite. Everyone wants to be understood, most seek peace and belonging. So is there a right way and a wrong way to understand someone? This answer is yours my friend.
