Brilliant People

My mother and father would always warn me to be alert for the world is full of fools. They say be careful, humans have bad intentions. As I grew up and began to make friends they often looked at their appearance and questioned why I would be friends with someone like that. My brain became wired to look at people on the surface and nothing more. 

As we grow older our minds begin to form new thoughts and curiosity new ways of thinking and seeing. As I grew I allowed my mind to expand and eliminate these judging  thoughts. When my mind expanded I began to pay attention to people more closely -- and sure we can all be fools sometimes -- seeing beyond their surface. I realized people can be extraordinarily brilliant. 

I have payed more attention to my friends and started to see how each one of them is brilliant in their own way. In fact every time I think about them and what they are capable of I become shocked and stay in awe. 

Fredy, he loves music, he can make any beat and adjust it to make people feel different moods. He can transfer chords and notes from pianos to ukuleles and play any tune he wants even if he does not know how to play the instrument. He has unique ideas that he expresses in the music he creates and make it a full on experience. He is brilliant.

Osvaldo, he values three things more than anything: reading, meditation, and exercise. He reads all types of books that give you motivation, books that talk about the mind, books about philosophy. He reads and he retains this information, his vocabulary is so wide, his thoughts are so strong and passionate. He can balance his thoughts even when they are too overwhelming. He has trained his body to lift extraordinary amounts of weight and puts so much meaning into it. He is brilliant.

Anissa, she is the master of anything and everything. Anything you teach her that captures her interest for just a second, she will learn it. She will learn it so well and she will become the best at it. Her mind is quick, she understands concepts in a snap. She became a master in gymnastics becoming super flexible in just a few weeks. She took on the gaming world and defeated all her opponents. She does masters tasks with no prior experience making it look like a breeze. She is brilliant. 

These are just a few of my friends that have brilliant aspects to them but I see brilliance in all my friends, they are all just completely amazing.
