i know how it feels
when i see you smile (:

No matter how long we exist,
we have our memories.
Points in time which time itself cannot erase
Suffering may distort my backward glances
but even to suffering,
some memories will yield nothing of her beauty or their splendor.
Rather they remain as hard as gems.

"cage-bird"...
is a word I like to describe some people who are always stuck at home.

Today, I learnt one new word called "mugger", which means the so-called "nerds"...
This group of people live only to studying and they really study till they die...

So I wonder whether I can put the word mugger with a cage-bird...

A cage-bird means that the single person is either one way or another, forever stuck in his/her own cosy corner, which they call home...
just like the ancient China's forbidden palace...

When you are in this situation...
the textbook is your only life...
then you will in return...
lose whatever you should know or look at outdoors...

There are 2 cases in these types of cage-bird incidents...
both are problems...
one with the parents...
and another with the children...

Firstly...
Some parents just forbid their children to go out...
that, we cannot help it...
Parents do what is best for us...
They want us to neglet our friends to study...
They just want to be proud of us...
but this will just make us feel more stress...
wanting to go to the outside world but stopped by the gates...
in which are the parents...

Secondly...
I lies with the child itself...
the child is so used to being him/herself that he/she isolates him/herself away from the world...
the world for them is only in a tiny cage...
in which is their home...
They are those lonely people...
which are locked in their own cosy corner just because they want to be alone...
this is also bad...
they will always feel lonely...
and soon after...
will evolve into the thought that living is a chore rather than an enjoyment...
that life is meaningless...

In conclusion...
I just feel that this "cage-bird" problem should be lifted away...
brought away from our lives...
be it the parents or the children...
the world is so huge...
the house is so small...
we can learn in the world than in our tiny home...

I don't think the person I am dedicating this to will be able to see this...
but I think it will be a good lesson to be learnt...
