Sometimes a crumb falls
From the tables of joy,
Sometimes a bone
Is flung.
To some people
Love is given,
To others
Only heaven.
— Langston Hughes

Some people are only lucky in love, but not money. Some are lucky in money, but not love. It seems everybody has just a few things in life, but not everything. That’s what this says to me.
