We all say that we must believe in ourselves. We say that we are having all the rights for only our ego. We say we are right in all aspects of what we are saying.

When people have other views, they look at you, and they think you are crazy and not understanding how everything works.

through the villages
and without the border of
what should be dykes
when flooding on the streets with you
while whole Europe affected
