Why remix perfection?
Why complicate something so simple?
Why tamper with the strongest trust?
Are you trying to see how much you can get from everyone you see?
Life's not about being sneaky and greedy and unfair.
Why not just be thankful for whats given to you?
Nobody has to love you.
And eventually, nobody will.

The author's comments:
We all want more than whats given us. We all want something spectacular. But, thats not always a good thing. Because, if you keep thinking nothing is good enough, and keep begging and demanding more, then eventually people will give up trying to please you. Nobody HAS to care. Be glad someone does.
