This piece speaks to a philosophy to which I have always been a follower since I was a child. That is why I understand it so well. The meaning is very special. It is one that I believe everyone should follow. Thank you for writing this. GW62

'i want to own the world...and the world me]'....i quoted this one coz it's a nice line ....we have our own opinions and ideas, , , we have different visions and mission...we build a home for our own, a family for our own, ..well, maybe we could build our own world too.. naizz
