its nice to know you're there
a shoulder to lean on when I become weary
the hands that lifts me up when I fall down
the arms that carries me when I get tired
its nice to know you're there
a silent shadow behind me
an invisible shield, an invisible strength
unseen but still there
its nice to know you're there
the sunshine in the rain
the light in the dark
the wisdom in the days of folly
the humor in the days of pain
I'm glad to know you'll be there
when all else is gone, when all else has failed
just stay there, don't leave me
you carry my heart, my life in your hands
It's nice to know you're there,
my brother, my friend.

yeah, were different
What makes us different from animals is not our so-called intelligence.
It is our ability to choose, to reason, to decide. Our ability to know the difference between right and wrong.
When you corner an animal, a snake for example, it will strike because it is its nature to do so. Animals strike even when you don't provoke them because it is their instinct to bite or maim. When a person is provoke, you can't expect him to bite or maul the person provoking him. Maybe the person would punch, kick or scratch or maybe he would prefer to walk away and do nothing. Though fighting back is an instinct, it is still a matter of choice.
But what about those people who kills without provocation? What about those who never feel remorse when they kill? Are they human or are they animals?

uncertainties
I do not know what the future holds for me
but it would be good to know that the people I cared for
would be facing that future beside me.
I guess, no matter how the bleak the future would be, it would be tolerable if you know that you have friends and loved ones beside you to boost you up when you're already too weak to move up.
