A long time ago, before the world was
created and
humans set foot on it for the first time,
virtues and vices floated around and were bored,
not knowing what to do.

One day, all the vices and virtues were gathered
together and were more bored than ever.
Suddenly, Ingenious came up with an idea:
Let's play hide and seek!

All of them liked the idea and immediately
Madness shouted: I want to count, I want to
count! And since nobody was crazy enough to
want to seek Madness, all the others agreed.
Madness leaned against a tree and started to
count: One, two, three...

As Madness counted, the vices and virtues went
hiding. Tenderness hung itself on the horn of the
moon, Reason hid in a pile of garbage. Fondness
curled up between the clouds and
Passion went to the center of the earth. Lie said
that it would hide under a stone, but hide
at the bottom of the lake, whilst Avarice entered a
sack that he ended up breaking. And Madness
continued to count: ... seventy nine, eighty, eighty
one...

By this time, all the vices and virtues were already
hidden - except Love. For undecided as
Love is, he could not decide where to hide. And
this should not surprise us, because we all
know how difficult it is to hide Love.

Madness: ...ninety five, ninety six, ninety seven...
Just when Madness got to one hundred, Love
jumped into a rose bush where he hide.

And Madness turned around and shouted: I'm
coming, I'm coming! As Madness turned around,
Laziness was the first to be found, because
Laziness had no energy to hide. Then he spotted
Tenderness in the horn of the moon, Lie at the
bottom of the lake and Passion at the center of the
earth. One by one, Madness found them all -
except Love.

Madness was getting desperate, unable to find
Love. Envious of Love, Envy whispered to
Madness: You only need to find Love, and Love is
hiding in the rose bush.

Madness grabbed a wooden pitch fork and stabbed
wildly at the rose bush. Madness stabbed and
stabbed until a heartbreaking cry made him stop.
Love appeared from the rose bush, covering his
face with his hands. Between his fingers ran two
trickles of blood from his eyes.

Madness, so anxious to find Love, had stabbed out
Love's eyes with a pitch fork. What have I done!
What have I done! Madness shouted. I have left
you blind! How can I repair it?

And Love answered: You cannot repair my eyes.
But if you want to do something for me, you can
be
my guide. And so it came about that from that day
on, Love is blind and is always accompanied by
Madness.

...There are some people who meet that somebody
that they can never stop loving...there are some
love that don't go away... but we should all be
lucky to end up with that somebody who has a
little of that insanity. Somebody who never lets go.
Somebody who cherishes you forever...

once u found someone tat truly cherish u..you're
on top of the world..for it's not easy to find
ssomeone who truly cherish u

The End -by Dev

I turn the corner, and there you are,
While we both pretend not to see the other.
We keep walking, our eyes straight ahead,
And I'm grateful, as we pass one another.

We were best friends for one year,
A year of laughter, a year of tears.
In the short time of bliss,
We had promised to be friends for years.

But those ‘years' have now been altered,
And the friendship has lasted just one.
I know that it is the end,
This is a friendship that will not be won.

You don't understand why it ended,
Or that I didn't want it to.
But sometimes in life,
You have to do what you have to do.

This was one of those cases,
I could no longer call you my friend.
I now know it can never go back,
And I have to realize, this IS the end.
