been thinking a long time.
if something cannot be lost, cannot be injured, cannot be broken..how much value will it have in people's life?
if your heart cannot break. doesn't hurt. would you cherish a loving relationship? if you never felt betrayed, would you cherish when you have a great friend? if people will never die, will you cheirsh who they are?
i think not. at least not as much as you would, if they can disappear from your life.
what we have is precious, is sometimes, usually, because they can be taken from us. those who never felt the loss of a certain thing..may never learn cherish it.
thinking about kids with parents who dotes on them totally. like everything they want they get. they get their way, their say and everything. like an emperor. they never cherish anything. use. play. eat. done with it..throw. they may know the cost of an object, but they will never know it's true value.
on the other hand, there are some people who have to work for everything they have. every single cent is hard earned. you won't see them throwing away things that still can be used. they won't get something just because they feel like it. things that they bought, they cherish and use it carefully. taking care of it.
same with lots of things in our lives. people around us. the concern, the friendship, the love and care we give to one another. maybe until you have been betrayed, been alone and been out casted, you won't know what friends mean to you.
friend. what a word. some know what kind there are in their lives. some don't care. some see people as just objects to be used to further themselves. how many real friends, who don't backstab you and take you for granted, do you have?
i am lucky to have some. i have been quite loner since sec 3 till after NS, where i mix around with archers abit more. and now, i am really glad to have some friends who have always been there..listening to me..be with me when i am down. whom i share my problems and joys with. whom they too share with me. for all these friends, i am blessed.
been lost and now found.
everything have a cost and value. it's almost impossible to place value on things that are irreplacable. life, love, friendship, trust, knowledge, blah blah blah..
alot of things..once lost, can never be the same.
un-break my heart
say you'll love me again
un-do this hurt you caused
when you walked out the door
and walked outta my life
un-cry these tears
i cried so many nights
un-break my heart, my heart
