There's no god. There's no religion. There's only life, what you do with YOUR life, who YOU let affect YOUR life. Bad things happen to everyone, you just have to learn to deal with them.

Laying down thinking,

Thinking about things,

Things that shouldn't have happened to me,

Me and my family,

Family that I can't let it happen to,

To see the world so differently,

Differently they would see life,

Life thatisso precious,

Precious enough to hurt so bad,

Bad enough to see things differently,

Differently they can't see things,

Things that happened to me.

The author's comments:
Before you judge someone, put yourslef in their shoes. Before you say something about someone, be sure you know the whole and true story. And sometimes, you can only try to understand people, because you will never know exactly how they feel, what they think, and how they see life.
