Cherish me now



When I am dead

Your tears will flow, but I wont know, cry with me now instead.

You will say a word of praise about me, but I won`t be there to hear, praise me now instead.

You will forget my fault, but I won`t know, forget them now instead.

You will wish you could have spent more more time with me, but I won`t be there for you, spent time with me now instead.

Spent time with every person around you, your friends, families and acquaintances, and help them with whatever you have to make them feel happy.

Make the people around you to feel specials because you never know when time will take them away from you forever.

You matter how many time the teeth bit the tongue, they still stay together in one mouth, that is the spirit of forgiveness even though the eyes does not see each other, but they see things together, blink simultaneously and cry together, that is unity.  

May we all practice the spirit of forgiveness and togetherness.

Alone I can say, but together we can talk
Alone I can smile, but together we can laugh.
Alone I can enjoy, but together we can celebrate.

that is the beauty of human relations
we are nothing without each other.
lets stay connected.

Thank you.
