She’s Special

By: Eli

She’s special. She’s not the smartest and she’s certainly not the prettiest, but she’s still special. It’s that hidden kind of special that has to be searched for before it’s realized it’s even there. You can see it in her eyes when she breathes. See, some people exhale simply because they inhaled. Others exhale as soon as they inhale simply because it’s a chore, its routine, it’s expected, and it’s all they know. But her, she’s special. She inhales not simply because it’s necessary for her survival, and not simply because it makes delightful whooshing noises as it enters her nostrils, she inhales simply, because. The best part of people, who inhale simply because, is that they make the exhaling bit all the more worthwhile. It’s people like her that the world needs more of; the ones who appear to live life on the sidelines, yet somehow live their life to the fullest through their nostrils, the people like her who get some sick twisted abnormal happiness from just breathing, the ones who never really smile unless their nose is buried in a book, the ones who wake up and breath, simply because. It’s those people that seem to make the day worthwhile, they just make things like breathing and laughing, and glaring, and yelling and living all the more surprising.
