Why?
I was just browsing around and found this good poem..... I thought i might share it with the site... I hope it helps someone... it helped me.
Sometimes we stop and ask ourselves why... Why are we here? What makes us tick? ......and other times we dont....... too preoccupied with success......... .....with failure...... ....with security.... .............................and fear. We're born..... we live..... grow old..... and die..... So what? Who cares? The routines we always enter..... resolutions we so often promise...... and so often break. We fear the unknown..... Changes that threaten our stable life..... Good or bad......Destiny laughs at us. Thinking we are unwilling to change...... But we do have the will, and she can be changed.

Thats kind of a sad poem.. Im not sure how much help can be derived from that.
It does have a good ending message though. NEVER feel like no-one cares. Know that no matter what, someone loves you. Even if you haven't met them yet. Also, if your having girl problems (not getting a gf/being dumped by one) than just think that some day, you will find your perfect mate. believe me, i've had problems with both of these things, not lately, but in the past. Love is like that, most people have SOMEone. Love is cruel though sometimes. |

Very thought-provoking. Its true that you can always change things if you try hard enough & make the right choices, hard though it may be. I like that seph- would you repost it in the Signs Of Hope thread?
