If I Were You

If I were you
 And you were me
 i knew your sorrows 
 And you felt pains of me.

 All roots of misunderstanding 
 Live in the heart of  unknowns 
 We  don't know well about each other 
 So misconceptions lead the differences. 

  If  elders were youngsters 
  And youngsters were elders 
  They knew each other's needs 
 Thus disputes never sprout their seeds. 

All you wanted to know about me
Same i wanted to know about you 
if you want war and disputes should dwell in hell 
then  we shouldn't afraid to make World well. 

  If some day a miracle happens 
  All men and women change their gender 
  They can feel needs of each other 
  Thus Respect and dignity hurt never. 

 If humans were Nature 
 And nature were humans 
 Think what we get from Nature 
 And what we return holy Nature 

 What is the worst in the world?
 Consider ownself merely right in the World. 
 If all persons are right 
 Then how deadly weapons get birth to fight.

another visit to encourage you: feel for the "other" even when they bite the hand that feeds them. A scorpion stings, humans need to show their TRUE nature
