in the midst of my solitude

"some memories aren't meant to leave traces."

honestly, it's right, if you think about it. some memories shouldn't leave traces, just like some are meant to be forgotten. memories that we wish to forget must be gone forever, and to leave traces will be disastrous lest we remember. personally, there are many i wish to forget and i wish all traces of it were lost. but i cannot; it is not in my power to. but still, i wish i could.
some memories are best left forgotten, really. the memory can be gone but the lesson stays on.
the lesson always stays on...

"humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. to obtain, something of equal value must be lost."

it is true that nothing is free. though it seems untrue, we do give up something for everything we receive... an arm, a limb, a gift, a toy, an emotion or a feeling. sometimes it isn't obvious, but we do. example, for love. love isn't free at all. for this emotion we have to give up something: our own love. we have to give love to receive love. we have to give up our hearts for another. for items: we pay money for an item, we give a toy to obtain another. how strange isn't it, that the First Law of Equivalent Exchange is so true outside the anime. how strange indeed.

i have no idea why i am senti (well actually, i do, but sa akin na yun) and why i am analyzing those particular quotes, but i am. so oh well.
it's my fault why i'm depressed again so i won't go rant. heh, i really have to be too curious for my own good. >.<

think about it.
