Why She

I use a cartoon bubble as a mental shortcut, a symbol of the way of thinking. We often have ideas about the other person in our heads that are not a true and comprehensive image of the person. We get used to cutting off uncomfortable features, some deficiencies, imperfections, dreaming only about what is needed and comfortable for us. We often deal with people as with those historic torsos of Greek statues that we admire in museums, considering them a finished composition, while they belonged to a specific figure, a man who had his faults and virtues, face, thoughts, dreams. Would we like it as a whole, or would it be more comfortable to stay at the level of the torso devoid of these weaknesses?
