- 13. ? Other People¡¯s Hell, Other People¡¯s Heaven Other people's hell, other people's heaven we pick up, like a spark that fuses a deeply-held bond all actions move each other Perhaps everything we can see looks like lives held back only disconnected worlds are blocked as though they lack strengthening bonds
- 14. ? Think act go on without feeling cast an anchor deep in the flow blood and flesh the rhythm of the heart whichever heart - one rhythm One rhythm - taking many forms creates the whole from each chamber change the crossroad offers a choice of journeys reap a thousand heights or sink Other people's hell or other people's heaven we can't help but take in whether they are repulsive or glorious - truth
- 15. ? Today the world usually takes sides seeks only the present ignoring the future continues to love or to hate It is the hell or heaven of other people we pick up that can be a spark whether they are beautiful flowers, flowers in bloom never choose the flames of war
