"I do not answer the call if I do not know who is calling...but I guess the whole point of it all is that you never know really..."
First of all, these are lyrics from Jason Mraz. He's one of my favorites. Second, that line is sooo me. Don't ask me why but the phone freaks me out sometimes. I don't like the thought of talking to someone I don't know on it. I don't know why, but I've always been that way. Caller ID really is a beautiful thing and if I don't recognize the number, chances are I'm not answering it!
Funny how that second part of the line goes...we never know really. If you're talking about phones, you could say even though it comes up as "Anna" calling, it might not be her. You never know. In life, it could be the same. You could sit around not letting anyone in that you don't already know, but you don't know what a difference that person could make in your life.
So maybe this teaches us to "answer the call" so to speak. Or be careful about who people really are. You could translate it a million different ways. Chances are Jason Mraz was just talking about phones... ;)

Thanks! :) You have a great one too!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I do the same thing... if it's a number that I don't recognize, I don't answer it because I figure if it's someone I actually do know and it's important enough, they'll leave a message :P
ReplyDeleteI think the same thing Natalie :)
