One of the most remarkable individuals in the world is the artist. Their ability to transform ink and paper into breathtaking masterpieces, guided solely by their imagination, is truly awe-inspiring. As someone who enjoys sketching and has a deep appreciation for imaginative art, I am continually amazed by the creativity and ingenuity of the human mind.

Have you ever befriended a writer? I hold writers in high regard. They rank among the most extraordinary people in my view. Writers are both knowledgeable and wildly imaginative, true fantasists. It's fascinating how they wield words to paint vivid pictures of inner thoughts, crafting stories that transport readers to other worlds and leave them mesmerized. Their art is as captivating and enchanting as that of any visual artist.

Writers possess a unique talent for using language to explore human nature, capturing our fantasies, regrets, dreams, and more. They channel the energy of the universe, bringing to life new realms and realities, and spinning tales that seem to come straight from our dreams.

One of the most striking examples of the power of writing I've encountered was on Facebook. The way certain writers there use words to engage and captivate, leaving readers lost in their narratives, is truly astonishing. It inspired me to delve into writing myself, and it's been an incredibly enjoyable journey.

Are you a writer? How effectively can you capture my attention?

Have you ever wondered what it's like to get older? You know, you're in a situation where you're thinking back on your early years with fascination. You start to lose interest in the things you used to enjoy as a kid and start becoming interested in the songs your father liked—songs you used to think were just noise. a stage in life when, as a result of the wise decisions we made as children, we either end up alone or are happy for the rest of our days. In any case, aging is a given, just like death. As they say, an old man's beauty lies in his grey hair. Would you not want to know how stunning you would be in old age?

"The voices in my head are deafening,
A constant cacophony that drowns out my thoughts.
I'm forced to listen to their relentless banter,
A mental torment that leaves me yearning for peace.
Their words are like a piercing sting,
A pain so intense it's hard to resist.
Even when I try to disagree,
Their voice is like a cry for freedom, a wail of misery and distress.
Their whisper is authoritative, persuasive,
Urging me to surrender, to obey without question.
The pain becomes too much to bear,
And I'm left with no choice but to succumb to their demands.
I must let go, free myself,
Forget the world, as the voice instructs.
"Forget today, tomorrow is another day..."
A haunting refrain that echoes in my mind.

For my Children, for their Children..

I gave you life, but cannot live it for you..
I can teach you things, but I cannot make you learn..
I can give you directions, but I cannot be there to lead you..
I can allow you freedom, but I cannot account for it..
I can take you to church, but I cannot make you believe..
I can teach you right from wrong, but I cannot always decide for you..
I can buy you beautiful clothes, but I cannot make you beautiful inside..
I can offer you advice, but I cannot accept it for you..
I can give you love, but I cannot force it upon you...
I can teach you to share, but I cannot make you unselfish..
I can teach you respect, but I cannot force you to show honor..
I can advise you about friends, but cannot choose them for you..
I can advise you about sex, but I cannot keep you pure..
I can tell you the facts of life, but I can't build your reputation..
I can tell you about drink, but I can't say "no" for you..
I can warn you about drugs, but I can't prevent you from using them..
I can tell you about lofty goals, but I can't achieve them for you..
I can teach you about kindness, but I can't force you to be gracious..
I can warn you about sins, but I cannot make you moral..
I can love you as a child, but I cannot place you in God's family..
I can pray for you, but I cannot make you walk with God..
I can teach you about Jesus, but I cannot make Jesus your Lord..
I can tell you how to live, but I cannot give you eternal life..
I can love you with unconditional love all of my life...and I will..

I love you till the end of time..

I have a place for you,
better than a place.
A place which was once your home,
better than this place you call home.
I know you won't believe me.
but if only you will take my hands and walk with me.
Then,you will see and agree that,that place is a place worthy to be called home

"The perfect (place)home"
