Running Into The Ugly INNER

Since I have cut back on smoking cancer sticks I have been running two to three miles about every morning. When I say morning I mean EARLY. But this morning was quiet different from any other early morning because I ran up on someone that was up as early as me. This person, to say the least, was very large and was taking up the whole Cold Mnt. Springs trail. I got really pissed off that this slow fat ass was in front of me so as soon as the trail widened I sprinted past them. I just kept thinking to myself about how unhealthy and ugly the person was in front of me and how futile it was for them to even bother taking care of themselves at this point. As I entered Dogwood and the early morning sun began to burn the cold from the air I realized the only thing ugly on this mornings run was my mind. How dare I think of someone as being less than myself just because they look different than me. If anything that person and I share a very deep connection due to the fact that neither of us asked for the bodies that we were given in this life. It is really a fluke of genetics and I and no one else has the right to judge someone based on some wicked celestial science experiment. Appearances are so deceptive due to the fact they are based on unclean perspectives. Just like a leaf seems green does not mean that the leaf is really green. The physics of light say that the colors we see is the light that is reflected from the object. Therefore it is not absorbed. So does this mean that when we see very beautiful people that they are merely reflecting what they did not absorb? Physics says so.
