***Note***Why? Well, everyday, each of us does things that may seem pointless to ourselves
or to others...the point is, these things are NOT really pointless and if you start to
think of certain things that way, such as life and death, healing and hurting, then you
might as well question every single thing you do...you see? It has to stop
somewhere...we need to stop asking why all the time...
So my answer to 'why' is:
~~~~~~~~~WHY NOT?????!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~
Much love always,
Hope, faith and hugs,
