When you go through a negative situation, don't think about it. Make it positive.

Walking on thin ice, I'm paying the price. I'm throwing the dice in the air. Why must we learn it the hard way And play the game of life with your heart?

I always believed that my work should be unfinished in the sense that I encourage people to add their creativity to it, either conceptually or physically.
