You call me a stranger.

Hmm. Somehow I think I used this title before... :/ Ohwell.
Seems like I was wrong. Sorreh.
The best experiences are not learnt from a teacher or in a school, but from life itself.
Let me tell you a story. Once, there lived a child. He had a set of painting kit (paint and paintbrushes etc). One day, his teacher told him to paint a picture as nice as he possibly could. When he got home, he quicky started painting. He painted everyday, picture after picture, trying to paint a perfect picture. One day, his black paint suddenly smudged. It ruined the almost perfect painting. Angry, he threw the black paint away. From that day on, he painted all his artworks without the colour black. And he saw his art grade getting from good to bad, to worse. The end.
Moral of the story: You can throw something away, but you'll be missing out on alot of things. Sometimes, the old things are always the best. No matter how many replacements you get.
And that is why I never throw. I keep everything. Faith, promises, secrets, and the broken pieces of my heart.
