Why?/Louder Than Words

Why is it that somethings come easier to some then it does to others?

Why can some people not put their whole heart into something and still get by looking great, but the people who do try, who do give their all, fall short?

Why is it that I can meet someone and instantly be best friends with that person; it just comes natural and easy, but when I have known someone my whole life, I have to work at the relationship?

Why is it that when I am surrounded by people that I know and love, I feel safe? But why is it when I am surrounded by the people I know and love is when I feel the most vulnerable?

Why is it that someone can instantly forgive the people who wronged them, while others will hold a grudge for years?

Why is it that when we are instructed not to do something, is the time where we actually start to think about doing it?

Why.... a lot of things....

I know this is a little deeper then I usually get in my everyday conversations, but I was just thinking. :) It actually reminds me of a song. Here are the lyrics. It really makes you think...
(and don't worry I'm not depressed or anything! lol! I was just in a deep mood)

Louder Than Words

Why do we play with fire? Why do we run our finger through the flame?
Why do we leave our hand on the stove, although we know we're in for some pain?
Oh why do we refuse to hang a light, when the streets are dangerous?
Why does it take an accident before the truth gets through to us?

Cages or wings? Which do you prefer? Ask the birds
Fear or love? Baby don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words

Why should we try to be our best, when we can just get by and still gain?
Why do just nod our heads, although we know the boss is wrong as rain?
Why should we blaze a trail when the well worn path seems safe and so inviting? How as we travel can we see the dismay and keep from fighting?

Cages or wings? Which do you prefer? Ask the birds
Fear or love? baby don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words

What does it take, to wake up a generation?
How can you make someone take off and fly?
If we don't wake up and shake up the nation
we'll leave the dust of the world wondering why

Why do we stay with lovers, who we know down deep, just aren't right?
Why would we rather put ourselves through hell, then sleep alone at night?
Why do we follow leaders who never lead?
Why does it take catastrophe to start a revolution?
If we're so free, tell me why, someone tell me why, so many people bleed?

Cages or wings? Which do you prefer? Ask the birds
Fear or love? baby don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words
