Superheroes and their underwears

Photobucket
Life is so mysterious and it's only fair that you have a corner in your mindset for a lot of things that contradict with your view upon several things. Despite the saying 'what makes us different makes us beautiful', like any other obstacles in life, it comes with a downer. What makes us different can somewhat group us into a minority level and somehow we do get lonely, misguided and pretty much uncertain by the reaction.

As a kid, I've always found amazement in wearing a superhero mask and pretty much wearing a short shorts on my long pajama pants. I would imagine I could save the world with my superpower. Little do I know about the lack of appreciation and the ignorant approach society could have on them, superheroes.

Yes, it's true.. any newspapers could love to publish a column about a flying man in blue tights with a red tight underwear on top. People love to be the first to see this 'thing' or just to be able to talk to this individual.

However, superheroes are encountered with the lack of acceptance from the norm.
(1) People find it quite hard to contribute towards a conversation with these superheroes.
(2) People get intimidated by the way they can't do the things superheroes do, so they hardly question itnor accept it.
(3) People find it hard to relate to the ability.
(4) People feels safe to be ignorant of the superpowers.
(5) People can't adjust these into their norm.

At the end of day, after a superhero saves a life, he ends up crouched on his sofa watching sitcoms with Oreo, hoping to get rid of the loneliness they feel inside in order to meet that someone who would have the same superpowers as he does.

Little do we all know that we all share some sort of superpowers among us but some of us feel a bit too out of the norm to bring it to a sanity level.

It's mardi gras time in Sydney, Australia this weekend. Now, I want you guys to read the above and instead of 'superheroes', put in the word 'human beings'.
Instead of 'superpower', put in the word 'monogamy'

How do you feel????
We all know it exists and we all crave for it but are we, as good people, too scared to wear our underwears on top of our blue lycra?

Happy Mardi Gras, people!
and just believe in yourself that 'monogamy' is sought often but it's right there in your heart.
Stay true to your loved ones
and just know that life is not worth regretting
life is worth living with the one you love!!
