Is this how it is supposed to be?

Sometimes you stare at a word for too long and it starts to lose its meaning. The alphabets strung together to form the familiar word starts to look weird, and you start questioning whether it's really meant to be spelt this way.

Maybe it's the same for other things. Look at it too closely and you start questioning its meaning and whether it's really meant to be the way it is. And you start wondering about what you once thought you knew. Suddenly you're not sure about what you used to take for granted. 

"I found when I was a child that if I could put the hurt into words, it would go. It leaves a sort of melancholy behind and then it goes." - Jean Rhys
