If I cant start a fire I will die from hypothermia.

If I am associated with my political party I will be thrown in jail.

If I don't get at least a B on this test I wont be able to go to the dance.


All of these problems are equally important, but that last problem is by far the worst.

A different person is experiencing each of these problems, but there all thinking upon the same lines, “If this happens its over”.

The same amount of desperation is being experienced by all three people.

And funnily enough, each person would gladly trade problems with the other.

The grass IS always greener on the other side, but it still tastes the same once you get there.

hey you, there's a poetry thread on this page. How can you miss it?
