... just remember in the winter
    far beneath the bitter snows
    lies the seed that with the sun's love
    in the spring becomes the ROSE...

    "the rose," bette midler

          winter is approaching.....and soon enough i'll be heading home.  everyone
     is leaving.  people walk in and out of my life.  yet they have left several
     footprints in my heart. 

          what is it with this world?  it seems like noone cares.  no matter how hard i
     try, all that come back is just an emptiness and a blur.  i wonder if there'll never
     be someone who looks back and hand me what i need most...what i long for all
     my life.  yes, it is LOVE that i need back in return.  do i ask for too much?  do i?
     maybe it is me that i have to blame.  i could be too demanding.
