.

the title comes from the movie "transsiberian"
the original quote is from tennessee williams
"if i got rid of my demons, i'd lose my angels"
everyone can interpret it in a different way
not necessarily how williams meant it

good and evil
angels and demons
love and hate
most things come in a pairs

good is good because evil exists
angels are loved because people fear demons
without hate love can not be felt
it is intended this way
so we can tell the difference between two opposite sides
then we'd appreciate the good ones more

it is death we fear
so we treat our bodies right to postpone it
it is love we need
so we treat others right hoping they'd love us back

however
since it's almost inevitable that things do exist in pairs
we should learn to accept the other side

so
when you are hated
be patient and seek to make amends
when poverty strikes
be hopeful and seize every single opportunity
and when death finally finds you
be grateful that you can rest

it is an action
when you buy someone flowers

it is an thought
when you keep thinking of someone

it is an feeling
when it is not your mind but the heart that is affected

it is hunger
because some words need to be fed again and again

it is greed
because some thing you just want it more and more

it is hatred
when there's so much of it that you can't let go

it is selfishness
when a there's a certain someone you wanna keep to just yourself

it is sacrifice
when you put someone else's life before yours

it is lust
when it's the body you desire

it is everything
yet it is nothing

it is the one thing people never truly understand
it is ....
