IMPRESSIONS...

WHAT REALLY MAKES THEM?

 

 

THAT CERTAIN TIME?

THAT SPECIAL PLACE?

THAT MAGIC MOMENT?

A WARM EMBRACE...

ARE FIRST IMPRESSIONS ALWAYS LASTING

OR DO THEY CHANGE,

“IN TIME PASSING?”

 

 

COULD WE SAY...

IMPRESSIONS ARE IMAGES WE CREATE

 FROM OUR EXPECTATIONS OF ANOTHER?

 

 

EXPECTATIONS ARE USUALLY SET HIGH

AND LET DOW HARD

AS TIME GOES BY.

 

If impressions are based on expectations,

Shouldn’t they too have limitations?

 

 

“HE’S ALWAYS SMILING,” ONE MIGHT SAY...

BUT HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT MADE HIS DAY.
 

SOME LET IT OUT FOR ALL TO SEE.

WHILE OTHERS HIDE THEIR UNSPOKEN MISERY.

  

 

ARE WE IMPRESSED BY THEIR APPEARANCE,

OR DEEPER YET BY THEIR ENDURANCE

TO PUT ON A SMILE IN SPITE OF IT ALL

OR TURN AROUND AND TELL IT ALL

JUST EXACTLY WHERE IT’S AT

AND JUST AS OFTEN

WITHOUT TACK.

 

 

WHO GIVES US THE RIGHT TO JUDGE

ANOTHER HUMAN BEING

WHEN BELOW THE SURFACE

WE AREN’T SEEING?

 

 

BUT    EVEN   WORSE....

 

 

THAT WE COULD TAKE ANOTHER’S  EVALUATIONS,

TO CREATE        O U R    O W N    FIRST  IMPRESSIONS.

 

 

ARE FIRST IMPRESSIONS ALWAYS LASTING....

.....OR WILL THEY CHANGE....

....”IN TIME PASSING”
