Riiiiiight.. I live in a country with some of the highest taxes (actually, they increased the VAT this year) in the world and I don't mind that poorer people 'leech' off of my paycheck. I'm poor, but I live a good life and there's always someone who needs help more than me. Are you really so selfish that you just want to live well and can feel content with yourself when others around you suffer?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
