How Hardheads Must Feel
Today I am going to imagine getting into the brain of a hard head.
Someone who never changes their mind or entertains a new thought.
This is fiction so be kind to me.
This is what I have imagined they think:
My mind is made up; it is hardening as I speak.
Soon there will not be any “maybe” or “ifs” left.
I am rapidly closing, hard and fast; tightly shutting down.
I refuse to allow any information, facts or reverse thoughts to enter my brain.
I am proud of my enthusiastic unwillingness to hear or see.
I will not abide any new material or information in.
My mind is made up, loud and clear; pleasing me greatly.
Why don't I have any friends?
Why don't the relatives return my phone calls?
Why is everyone so mean to me?
