grief no more..





Life is cruel at times.. cruelty that sometimes leads one to his grave.. this cruelty also leads one to bring out the best in him.. but good if this is the case.. right? So many children have been victims of slavery, hunger, deprived of their rights and most of all deprived of it's own mother's love! See how cruel life is? See how this poor little fellas suffered from the works of Satan..

This reality torn my heart into pieces, made my pleasant emotions turned to grief.. grief that turned into a anger and anger turned into an unexplainable feeling of emptiness.. I was once a victim of life's cruelty.. once a child longing for a complete and happy family.. i wasn't longing for riches.. for fine dresses.. i wasn't longing for more.. i had nothing but emptiness..but that emptiness serves as a shield that protected me against everything..

But that was years ago.. little had I known that the experience I had brought me here.. in the world where everything seems uncontrollable and unjust.. here I am facing the world with utmost strength and well i guess.. gracefully.. ready to face all the storms the earth may bring..

Grief no more.. this three words are often uttered.. for even I experienced such.. I have the most wonderful parents still.. who taught me that even life is unjust.. that some things are best that way.. taught me the wisdom and shaped a character of a woman.. whom they want me to be...
