I was (and still is) reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini and i got to this part where the Heroin learns that her childhood friend/lover/bestfriend has died in hospital after enduring a few weeks of pain brought by this missle that hit his refugee truck. It's a long story..you should read it if you've the time. It really, really, really is good.

so anyway, i was reading it and the way he wrote the ordeal and how he managed to bring the book to a climax within that chapter makes the book a good piece for reading. i swear to god i've never been so moved in my entire life by someone's literature. a must read *thumbs up*.

it also brought me to the attention of not realising how much i've - rather, we've - been blessed and sheltered from the real world; financial crisis, war, inflation, recession, things like that and it STILL and will continue to surprise me how much most of us just don't care for everything else besides ourselves and how much we like to immerse our everydays in selfishness and foolery. I know i rant about this ALL. THE. BLOODY. TIME. and i'm not saying i'm any different but..I'd just like to remind everyone out there that things can get worse and before it does, we should all be grateful for the things we have now before it's too late.

Sigh..

Love to the people.
