Two boys were playing on a summer night and found some matches. They lit one of the wooden matches and gathered some dry leaves from nearby. As the leaves burned the were in awe of how the fire consumed the leaf and turned it from vibrant oranges and reds to a light grey smoke to black ash. The remains of the ash were left as they went about their night never to be thought of again. A small event in their lifetime. This is a direct story but what are the feelings of the two boys? The one who lit the match. The one who kept the patches. In that moment was there any feelings of entitlement? A feeling of being left out or lack? Sounds silly for such emotion to be in such a simple story, yet we do this all the time in the smallest interactions in our lives. We give it a deeper meaning from our perspective and assume a victor or victims role when in fact it is simply nature taking its course.
