blessed be.

i was browsing through the msn contacts list and came across yuhan's msn nickname. thou it was nothing t marvel at, it was certainly something that struck me, to linger at that thought, playing with it in the hands of my mind.

to quote : its the simple things in life we forgot.

simple, no? i highly doubt this little cache comes unfamiliar t you. perhaps you have always dismiss it as one of those oxymoronic phrases, that brims with sentimental meanings, but doesnt strike a chord in your heart strings, one of those little jingle you find in perfume-laden giftshops, where you scour for those meaningful little gifts with meaningless purpose to give to strangers you dont really know. comphrehend, non?

alright, returning back to my issue. its the simplest things in life that we often take for granted, because its always there, so fixed, a presence in your everydays routine that you barely take significant notice of it. the subtle blessings of home, did it ever occur to you, somewhere out there, a teen exactly your age, might be wondering which park bench to sleep on tonight? which bench, will hide her from the cruelties of this harsh world, which ordinary wooden furniture would keep her from being raped during her slumber? Did it struck you, that at another corner of this world, another teenager is comtemplating which store would she nick an apple or pear from? which store manager is only half alert, so she could sneak an apple, to last her for the oncoming two days? did it dawned to you, that there are kids in this world who's parents dont appear at your doorway every ten minutes, to advise you to stop banging on your keyboard and start revising? and they dont tell you that your music is too loud? why? because they are busy getting drunk on the bottle, or too busy whoring the night away, to care for the welfare of their children.

did you?
