/^t/I have also written about people as engines and I believe it is very true. Whatever happens in our lives we always need someone to tell him about it. No matter whether it is a sad or a happy event. It is much easier to hear it or enjoy it when we have someone we can share it with. In sadness we need another person to cheer us up, to "move us forward", not to let us stop and stay in the state of selfpity. We need those engines - other people. And the most wonderful thing, we not always realize, is that those people need us as well. We cannot exist without each other. As islands we can survive only few moments. Sometimes when we need some time to stop and get deeper into our souls. Then we need silence. However these moments do not last very long. After some time we find ourselves looking for somebody to tell him about our thoughts we have experienced staying "on a desert."
