The moon was hiding and the wind was scared to come by. The silence of the night was disrupted by luminosity all around. No, it was not fireworks. Neither a celebration of some kind.  They were bombs turning to ashes every inch of life. Children touched the ground like falling angels one by one…I survived. I was born with a personality of some type.  But rivers of blood, sorrow and despair polished my character since early time. Oh Lord, help me to forget, help me to forgive, and help me to transcend beyond the luminosity that turned, every inch of life, into ashes all around.

Oh women, from all around the world, civilization granted you the right to education and vote.  But excessive progress has intoxicated your self worth. Going back to basics on the definition of your primary role will bring cure to society’s ill core. The wiser I become, I realize God made no mistake.  Your greatest success is positioning your home on a rock.

The rock of character is the foundation of who you are; and assuming that you influence by example, how is your child’s character to be structured to pass through the fire of life? A child’s character is a collection of repetitive good habits. Do not handicap your child by servicing him all the time and all the way.  Allow him to go through difficult times and limitations.  He will come out stronger and wiser. Provide him with the necessary space to use his judgment and self-sufficiency to make mistakes and conquer his own victories.

I know you love him with all thy heart. Your tender and self-sacrificing love wants to protect him from all odds. Only if you could. But life has mysterious detours. Your child’s fate will be determined by his character and in the profoundness of the same, he will be able to define his position on the train of life. The key of this molding is the nurturing of his mind, where thoughts are created and actions are executed to take responsibility for his choices in life.  His character will give him the courage, not only to fight for his principles, but better yet, to live up to them.

Oh women, from around the world, be consistent in the training of your child’s young soul. Do not apply discipline only when in the mood, or overlook his faults just because you do not have the moral authority to preach with love. Planting the seed is best, within the first few years of his life. However, the time will come when he will become an adult and the only thing left to do, besides telling him how much he is loved, is to trust his life and safety to the infinite mercy of thy God.

Send your child with money into the world and he might not only lose his money, but lose himself. Send your child endowed with character into the world and he might not only come back with money, but he will have the power to refuse to be changed by the world.
