Diagnose My Painful Knee

Pointing the finger.

.
.
I taught it was impolite to point the finger
.

observation Much more if you would make
was related to the uniqueness of someone
or disability, or any
limiting
or physical abnormality.

remember such a time my mother hit me

slap because I had asked,
while pointing the finger
"Why is it so?".

And of course, on the other side of the street
was a child, his face burned, while an adult
pushed in the back
to be faster.

The downside, however, is that
sincerely
remember that time I asked about the adult-

was too rushed and walked without looking at anyone, "
and I had not even set in the burned face
of that child.

Anyway, the point is that
point the finger
became one of those things necessary
but proscribed

complicate life just not knowing what to do with the fear of encountering
another

different enough to be the subject of interest.

And we must recognize that it is odd point

what is similar to us, especially when
and try to point them

something not seen with the naked eye.

is, nobody's there
pointing sensations
far
running his finger towards himself ...

also

usual signal in the first instance what we do not know how
appoint
that that language does not catch because their uniqueness
lets our words
escape and take refuge in the distance, or mass
,
where we could only go to look
using your finger,
thing, as mentioned, should not be
,
for reasons of good education,
and adherence to acceptable behavior.

There is, however, another reason not
point to another
with a finger.

One reason
originates near the desire we have
to never stop being a self
and not become another,
for another ...

is,
there is something in that standard backup

also protects us from being targeted and excluded
,
and considered strange or unique
,
for those who spread their fingers

to us as if we were doomed.

And nobody wants to be special

these days ... or at least not when the cost is

become someone who can be designated
guilty in something like an abbreviated trial
where you can not defend yourself.

Finally,
I prefer the Van Gogh
letter where he tells Theo that
when small,
found the plaque in memory of a brother
hitherto never
had heard that there had been
or
the same name:

- Look! -Would have said,
that stone has my same name ... maybe I'm

buried and not know ...

But of course,
further clarify the situation,
what happened was that he was punished for having pointed out that

with a finger, and Vincent

understood then (as he tells Theo)
that truth is not there
to be seen, and that even God
perhaps
remain so,
among men, without
nobody dares to tell

never his presence.
