Mystery
This object is a mystery,
but I will describe it with as much detail as I can.
This object is always with me, but only shows itself at divine
moments in my life. I do not have complete control over this object but it is a
part of me in peculiar way.
It changed and is still changing my perspective on everything and
makes me question things a lot more frequently then I have done in the past. No
matter how much time passes and things change, this object is the only thing
that stays consistent and remains stable through everything, sometimes I can
feel it weighing heavy on me and other times I can barely notice it.
This mystery object
is something I treasure about myself. It makes me unique and different from the
majority of people. At times even I have a hard time figuring out this object,
but I have learned to just let it be and I’ll end up alright. I share the story
of the mystery object with very few people and most of those people do not quite
understand where understand where I’m coming from because they have never been
there themselves.
This object has a
lot of meaning to me and it’s something that I hold close to me. There was a
point in my life when I wished it was never there but I have learned a lot more
about the object and myself and realized that it was there for a reason and it
partially made me who I am today. I love who I am today and would never change
unless it was necessary for improving myself and becoming a better or more knowledgeable
human being. The object to me is understanding, understanding is huge to me and
if everyone had it the world would be a lot more peaceful and fair.
One of my closest
friends “T” shares somewhat of the same mystery object within himself also and
we discuss it on rare occasions, we talk about its purpose and what it really
is. We talk about the good, the bad, the light, and the dark of it. We have
found that right now we aren’t going to ever truly understand it, but we will
try and we will persevere through the hardships that comes with it. But the
understanding that it gives is well worth the hardships that come along.
One of the things
we are working on now is how to use it, and just understand the sort of mystery
is does bring. And to share the knowledge and not let it die with us. Even if
people deny it or try to prove it wrong, it never will be. It will always be a
truth that lies in heart of me and my friend, and very few others who have experienced
this mystery object. With that I will leave you with one question, if you had
everything you ever wanted, what would you still want?
Hey Jesse, I liked your paper. I liked how you used an interesting topic for your object, I liked how you kind of built the suspense on what it was, and i liked the question at the end. thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteThanks Riley!
DeleteI liked that it was a mystery, it definitely had me intrigued and I wanted to keep reading. I like that you got really deep with it and it seems like you just poured it all out into this one paper. I can't wait to see what else you write about. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteThanks Madeline, I wasn't too sure what people would think lol.
DeleteSalutations, Jesse. Your opening line does a great job of drawing your reader in. "This object is a mystery." What could THAT mean? I'm bemused. I like how this piece makes me think, and how it challenges me. I had to read it a few times to wrap my head around it. Your question at the end reminds me of the mirror in Harry Potter that shows you your deepest desires. I recall Dumbledore telling Harry that the happiest man in the world would look upon the mirror and see only himself, exactly the way he is. Thank you for adding such a dynamic piece.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I appreicate that
