Things Are Different:
You never know the story
By the cover of the book.
You can’t tell what a dinner’s like
By simply looking at the cook.
It’s something everybody needs to know
Way down deep inside
That things are often different
Than the way they look.
When I put on a costume
To play a fancy part
That costume changes just my looks.
It doesn’t change my heart.
You cannot know what someone’s thinking
By the picture you just took
‘Cause things are often different
From the way they look.

Anyone who has ever been able to sustain good work has had at least one person — and often many — who have believed in him or her. We just don't get to be competent human beings without a lot of different investments from others.

We get so wrapped up in numbers in our society. The most important thing is that we are able to be one-to-one, you and I with each other at the moment. If we can be present to the moment with the person that we happen to be with, that's what's important.
