WHAT YOU WANT
VS
WHAT YOU NEED

I want too many things.

I keep reminding myself it's getting what I need that matters. Not what I want.

But I keep making plans on how to getting things I want. Those things I know exactly that I don't need.

This scares me a little, really.


Maybe.
If I could make that baby laugh. I thought.

The poor baby who can't eat on his own.
Who lies there all by himself. Alone. Day and night. In a hospital crib.
Nobody hugs him or carresses him. Just some strangers who make funny faces at him and hold his hands, when it's only convenient.
Where's dad? Where's mom?
He's surrounded by all those toys hanging around him.

But his crib's forever lonely.

I'm one of those strangers who drops by whenever I can. At my convenience.
I've made a few funny faces. I've held his hand.
He did smile a bit when he learnt this new game that I taught him.
Not sure if he'd play it before anyway but he did force a smile that's genuine happiness, among all the sadness and sorrows that's surrounding him since the day he came to see this world.
A world, already a cruel one, but to him it's been more than a little crueler than cruel.
His little hand held held my finger. He grabbed it pretty tight. And his eyes met mine. Such engaging eyes.
Was it a sense of wonder? Puzzlement? Or was it just a blank gaze?

Did he ever ask, why isn't this a fair world?

He had his fleeting moments. That's when he sucked his fingers - at least 3 fingers of his tiny right hand at the same time - he was really enjoying that moment, I could tell.
Nothing tastes better than his very own fingers.

Especially when that's the only one thing he could taste.


I was happy that I made him smile a little bit.
But if only he'd cry a bit too.
I've never seen him shed a tear. And now when I come to think of it - that's the saddest part of all.
