somebody postet this as comment on fb so nice

1. I genuinely love talking to people who have schizophrenia. They're some of the most brilliant and genuinely interesting people to listen to; I had a close friend in high school who was schizophrenic and I'd hang out and just listen to him talk for hours sometimes, because he had all of these really important things he felt compelled to tell the world (just from the sense of urgency in his voice) and it was kind of sad at the same time, because it seemed like he was trying to get across things that were way to complex for everyone else to understand, which was incredibly frustrating to him and made him really sad that he couldn't help everyone by showing them what he knew or thought, kind of. I'm not sure how to describe it. I mean it's categorized as a "mental illness" but whose to say that what he wasn't trying to convey was a kind of ultimate truth, that we just can't grasp because of the magnitude and complexity of it? Like why do people feel inclined to look down on someone or dismiss what they're saying as unimportant or consider them "ill" just because they don't understand what someone who has schizophrenia is saying? One of the things he said that really stuck with me for example is that even the brightest light casts a shadow somewhere; (or something to that effect) and that's influenced my outlook on a lot of things in life; Like no matter the situation nothing can be all dark or all light and I think because of him pointing that out to be I've been able to see the positive things in the most miserable situations, or the light in the dark always and vice verse. Anyway that's just my experience, I rambled a little bit, haha. But this song is beautiful and reminded me of all of that
