A Monologue

A Monologue

By
Maryam Mehanna

Do I belong to this dull world? Or do I belong to another brighter planet? Does our society look at me as a person who could not share and have a normal life? Is our society interested only in appearances rather than reality? – Life is a STEP to Eternity – Do I belong to the ideal world of Plato?!

I will ask a question and I want an exact answer: “Does our society consider me as a disabled person?” Am I clear in this question? Truly, I do not see myself in such a manner, because I can think, share and work. I myself think that the disabled person is the one who is negative in his life and watches at what is happening in the world without sharing in anything. In such a case, he/she will be a burden to others. Am I right in my conclusion? Where is Truth? Is truth accessible to us? OR Do we not want to be shocked by it?

Thanks a lot for reading it.
