Paragon

I changed my BB status to a quote I stumbled upon today, "All cruel people describe themselves as paragons of frankness" - Tenessee Williams. As I took my glum journey back home, my bbm beeped. Somehow I had a feeling it was Mat. Spot on! and it was. It seemed like a call from the dead. He asked me the meaning of paragon. I was speechless wondering if this man were for real. How can one continue this homgenous charade of insensitivity with such expertise, day in and day out. I've never ever come across anyone like him. Does the meaning of a bloody word mean so much? Was it worth the pain that heightens whether we talk or lose ourselves in discrete silence. For a man who is so gadget and internet savy, why not consult an online dictionary. That plastic smile of motives best known to him is merciless and cold and it sears me afresh each time.
