#049 FAREWELL MY PRECIOUS CHILD (POEM)



The moment that you died
my heart was torn in two,
one side filled with heartache
the other died with you.

 I often lie awake at night
when the world is fast asleep,
and take a walk down memory lane
with tear upon my cheeks.


Remembering you is easy,
I do it everyday,
but missing you is heartache
that never goes away.

 I hold you tightly within my heart 
and there you will remain.
Until the joyous day arrives
that we will meet again.






We must accept God's will even when sometimes it is difficult to understand what happens in our world or what happens to us. He knows why he allows it to happen, we are humans and we aren't perfect but he is.

    To be honest, this text remind me someone who I love so much. But now he is in heaven.

    I remember my elder brother, when he died all my dreams and achievements are broken 'cause he was the reason to have this dreams. When my family and I were in the hospital. He was there, in the white bed, he smiled, then. He died.
    I hoped that it was a joke, but, not.

    The sound of the heart machine stayed in my mind all this time. It was 4 years now. And I just want that he through the door and told me: "Hey! Let's make music".

    I just want to came to the past and spend some time with him and told how I loved him.

    But this opportunity now, it's not possible.

      I am truly sorry about your loss, just keep in mind that he is with God now and there was a reason why it happened. Someday we'll be with them but till that day we have to continue living for the ones who need us but above all sturggling for ourselves.

#002 THE MAN, HIS WIFE, THE DONKEY AND THE CRITICS

Image
Our society!!! An old man, his wife and a donkey were going to town. His wife rode on the donkey and the old man walked. As they went along, they passed some people who remarked it was a shame the old man was walking and his wife was riding. The man and his wife thought maybe the critics were right, so they changed positions. Then, later, they passed some people who remarked, "What a shame, he makes his wife walk." So they then decided they'd both walk! Soon they passed some more people who thought they were fools to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride. So, they both rode the donkey.  Now they passed some people who shamed them by saying how awful to put such a load on a poor donkey. The woman and her husband figured they were probably right, so they decided to carry the donkey. As they crossed the bridge, they lost their grip on the animal and he fell into the river and drowned. The moral of the story? If you try to please everyone,

#004 WHAT IS IT LIKE TO LIVE HERE?

Image
One afternoon, Socrates was standing outside the gates of Athens when he noticed a traveller who had been staring at him for a long time. Socrates asked the man why he had come to Athens. “I am thinking of moving to Athens”, the man said. “What is it like to live here?” He added. Socrates looked at him. “First, would you tell me what it was like in your home city?” The man replied: “Oh, it was awful. Everyone stabs you in the back and wants to steal money from you” Frowning, Socrates told him: “Well, you will find the same thing here. I suggest you go somewhere else” Socrates was standing there a few hours more when another man approached him. This man too had just arrived in Athens and was considering moving to the city. He also asked Socrates, “Can you tell me what it is like to live here?” Socrates asked, “First, would you tell me what it was like to live there where you come from?” “Where I come from, all the people work together and help each other”

#043 THE WOODEN BOWL

Image
A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table.  But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. “We must do something about father,” said the son. “I’ve had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.”  So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl!  When the family glanced in Grandfather’s direction, sometimes he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spil
