&quot;You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That&#039;s where I will always love you. That&#039;s where I&#039;ll be waiting.&quot; - J.M.B.<br /> <br /> To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.&quot; - J.K.R.

I don’t understand…

why people hate each other

why bats are mammals

why people like to pick on me
But most of all…

why is fighting the answer people take

why your loved ones and friends die

why is love wreath everything to people

why must people feel pain
What I understand most is…

why fish swim

why grass grows

why birds fly

why the moon rises and falls

It wasn&#039;t said by me, but my favorite quote is: &quot;Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it&#039;s done, they&#039;ve seen it done every day, but they&#039;re unable to do it themselves.&quot; - Brendan Francis
