Right Through My Soul

You've got to love the brutal matter-of-factness that children possess. A cousin of mine from Dublin just came over to our house, and with barely an introduction out of the way he asks me, "Are you still in college?" "No" I reply, to which he then asks, "So why are you still living at home then, and why are you dressed like that?"

He could see right through my soul, and I had no answers. All I could do was laugh at was probably the funniest thing I've heard all summer, and the cry alone in my room as I pondered his cutting words.

Sometimes kids are just brilliant.
