"Well, I suppose I can't expect too many manners from you." Vangelos chuckled a bit to himself. "You are entitled to your opinion, and I do not fault you for viewing the world differently than I do. I have so much to be thankful for that the negatives don't seem so bad. I have two legs, two arms, I'm currently healthy and living. I still have my sanity. I have food and water as well. But most importantly I still have hope. That's something that can't be taken." Vangelos let out a sigh and paused before continuing.<br/>"When I was young. I once complained because I had no shoes until I met someone who had no feet. It's not so much the cards were given, Violet, but how we play the hand. That's what Adriel taught me anyways. I have seen how ugly this world and it's inhabitants can be. I'm not ignorant to that fact. I actually had to train myself to smile...but...I've also learned that complaining about misfortunes doesn't do the heart any good. If you want things to change for the better than act upon it. That's my goal anyways. I want to bring peace and security back to this world. *Ahem* I'm sorry, I've probably said more than my fair share."<br/>Vangelos looked at her with an eyebrow raised."Though I do wonder......I never said I was isolated nor did I mention where I lived after he took me in...so where did you get such an idea?"
