Unforgiven pain even when the wound heals, the scar can still hurt long time. It becomes suffering. Besides being optional, suffering doesn't have an expiration date. If you don't let go of it, it won't let go of you. So forgive and heal yourself. Go to Quote / Comment | by Shagesa Mattheeuw
The ones that came and left before me saw things I didn't see. The ones coming after me won't see all I saw. I won't know, cause instead of me they will see what this world will be. And so on.

We are the inconsistency in this world. Coming, changing it and then leaving. We are a development in a developing world. Go to Quote / Comment | by Shagesa Mattheeuw
