'Cause I've had the
time of my life
And I've searched though every open door
'Til I found the truth
And I owe it all to you...
“Nobody puts Baby in a corner”, but nobody should
put anyone in a closet/corner.
People choose a cloistered life willingly because they want
to have the time to contemplate and “see the world spinning round.” This is their choice. And because it is their
choice, they do have the time to contemplate, and society is often the better for their
contemplation, when it is shared with society
The cloistered life is not dissimilar from a closeted life. However,
people do not willing chose to enter the closet. They are closeted because society
will not accept them as they are. They do not have time to contemplate. Instead they have to expend time to cover up the
reason that society put them in the
closet. The time that they could have
spent contemplating is lost to society.
How many "Eureka" moments has society missed because the time that
could have been spent contemplating was
spent closeting. You can’t find the truth until you open every door.
