Lie : A conscious knowledge
A father stepped into subway for the first time because his only son wanted to eat the fast food. The new culture, the new way of choosing and ordering the food, the many choices of breads & fillings, and the additional add on price charges were obviously too much for this seasoned man-of-the-house. He was patient and embarrassed though as he goes down the line. This is one man who obviously have meet more challenging task and have to do more difficult decisions. But he was stucked at the counter at this new and strange encounter. I was behind him all the while, and I could see how difficult it was for him to comprehend what are on the menu and the choices available to him. And i could sense how this was uncomfortable and very new to him but his son was a little impatient and like the society we are in, demand so much and ignoring people's space and pace.
As I silently witness this whole process, I felt both scared and motivated.The "dunnoe what to say or do and I am a big fool" moment will pass , so will the " nothing goes my way. I feel horrible shit" feeling will subsided..Knowing that the nerve-wrecking scary horrible unsured feeling to changes is universal, I felt comforted about being unprepared and unaware. And for the longest time since foreva, I feel that the world is under my feet and I have nothing to fear ..
