An Observation


If you love something, set it free.
If it comes back, it was and always will be yours.
If it never returns, it was never yours to begin with.


If it just sits in your living room, messes up your stuff,
eats your food, uses your telephone, takes your money,
and never appears to know
that you actually set it free in the first place,
---
then you either married it or gave birth to it.
