Romans 5:3-4

<font color=ff4040>"it all could be so simple, but you'd rather 
make it hard..."</font color=ff4040>

there comes a time in life, when we must DEAL 
with our problems. that doesn't mean blame 
them on others, it doesn't mean shove your 
beliefs down people's throats until you prove 
that you're "right", cause in the end.. after all
the hurt, all the pain.. <font color=ff4040>it isn't about who's right
anymore</font color=ff4040>, but more for our own glory.. it's about
feeding our selfish egos. there comes a time,
when we must think of others before ourselves,
even though it hurts, we must be considerate
of other people's feelings... yes, that means
trying to see things from their point of view. it 
doesn't mean just because you're miserable,
they have to be miserable too. it doesn't mean 
that you wish their lives were painful and filled 
with agony, it means trying to be glad if 
they're happy with their lives. it's like having a 
dagger in your leg, you can try to put a bandage 
over it, but <font color=ff4040>the wound can never fully heal until 
you get rid of the problem</font color=ff4040>. that means sometimes it's
better to leave things alone, than trying to fix
things on your own and end up more hurt than
you were to begin with...

<font color=ff4040>"...see i know what we got to do
you let go and i'll let go too
cause no one's hurt me more than you
and no one ever will"</font color=ff4040>
