If her presence, in the room, is simply based on yours;
Sir, you have more wealth combined, than all the distant shores.

5:14 in the morning and a young couple are up and about with a fishing Rod.The girl is so heavily made up that she clearly has no interest in fishing, she simply wants to be with him whatever he's doing. Good luck to both of them, they're going to need it in this world of ours.

There's a fine line between respecting one's elders and repeating their mistakes.

People today are more stoic whilst observing the murder of children than they are discussing the solutions.

To gaze upon, the path ahead;
One will feel so small.
But look unto, the past instead;
One feels oh so tall.
Progressive guise, has reaped demise;
Of hope, and thus, our might.
Asleep, we live, within disguise;
Our perfect shade of white.
