Mom ! Why am I the one to die ?

2008-12-22T06:43:00.000-08:00

I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
So I drank soda instead.

I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn’t drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.

I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right..
Now the party is finally ending, Mom,
As everyone is driving out of sight..

As I got into my car, Mom,
I knew I’d get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me,
So responsible and sweet.

I started to drive away, Mom,
But as I pulled out into the road,
The other car didn’t see me, Mom,
And hit me like a load.

As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman say,
“The other guy is drunk,” Mom,
And now I’m the one who will pay.

I’m lying here dying, Mom….
I wish you’d get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst like a balloon.

There is blood all around me, Mom,
And most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom,
I’ll die in a short time.

I just wanted to tell you, Mom,
I swear I didn’t drink.
It was the others, Mom.
The others didn’t think.

He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank
And I will die.
Why do people drink, Mom?

It can ruin your whole life.
I’m feeling sharp pains now.
Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,

And I don’t think it’s fair.
I’m lying here dying
And all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.

Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom,
Put “GOOD BOY ” on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom,

Not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom,
I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom.

I’m becoming very scared.
Please don’t cry for me, Mom.
When I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom.

Before I say good bye.
I didn’t drink and drive,
So why am I the one to die?

So,Will you still drink and drive ?

Watch your words, they become actions
Watch your actions, they become habits.

Technology helps Santa make magic

2008-12-18T03:25:00.000-08:00

Ever wondered how Santa Claus can travel around the world in one night on his reindeer-pulled sleigh and deliever toys to all kids ?

According to expert,Larry Silverberg,a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at North Carolina State University-"He exploits the space-time continuum.He understand that space stretches,he understands that we can stretch time and compress space.In a sense,he actually got six Santa months to deliver the presents."

Silverberg continues,"Santa doesn't carry enough presents for each child in the sleigh.He uses nanotechnology to grow the presents under the tree and he has figured out how to turn irreversible thermo-dynamic properties into reversible ones.So he starts from soot,candy and other type of natural materials,puts them under the tree and then actually grows them in reverse process to create the presents,wrapping and all."

And then, who's been naughty and who's been nice ?
He answers that Santa got large antennas miles long under the snow up at the north pole and grid-spacing is in the order of millimeters so that he can receive radar type signals.

Amazed aren't you ? So next time when you meet Santa , just remember that he got more stuff in his bag than what you initially imagined.Maybe he'll teach you a thing or two if you behave.

Parents are Precious

2008-12-16T08:41:00.000-08:00

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was fixing supper, and he handed her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his mom dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this is what it said:

For cutting the grass: $5.00
For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00
For going to the store for you: .50
Baby-sitting my kid brother while you went shopping: .25
Taking out the garbage: $1.00
For getting a good report card: $5.00
For cleaning up and raking the yard: $2.00
---------
Total owed: $14.75

Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen, turned over the paper he'd written on, and this is what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside
me: No Charge.

For all the nights that I've sat up with you, doctored and prayed
for you: No Charge.

For all the trying times, and all the tears that you've caused
through the years: No Charge.

For all the nights that were filled with dread, and for the
worries I knew were ahead: No Charge.

For the toys, food, clothes, and even wiping your nose: No
Charge, Son.

When you add it up, the cost of my love is: No Charge.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were big tears in his eyes, and he looked straight up at his mother and said, "Mom, I sure do love you."

And then she took the pen and in great big letters she wrote: "PAID IN FULL".

Parents sacrificed a lot of things in their life for our sake since the day we were born.So next time when you meet/see them, just remember the things they have done for you all their life and give them a Thanks."I love you,Mom !,Dad !", this is all what they want to hear from us.

They are precious,Arn't they ? :)

I'll Be Holding Your Hand

2008-12-09T03:38:00.000-08:00

Lisa loved basketball
Friends and parties too
And when it came to painting
That's all she wanted to do
She painted everything she saw
Birds, flowers, and the sky
Some days she sat at her window
And painted everything that passed her by

But lately she'd been feeling woozy
Her muscles ached a lot
And her parents got kind of worried
So they took her to the doc

The doctor took a couple of tests
To see if everything was okay
Then the nurse came out with a look of sadness
And this is what she had to say;
"I'm sorry but you've got leukemia,"
"You've got about 3 months more."

Then Lisa got up and ran out of the room
And slammed the office door
She ran down the street screaming
And cried her eyes out dry
And stayed up all night
Wondering what it's like to die

Her parents held her tightly
And said, "We love you,"
"We'll make your last few months the greatest,"
"We'll do anything for you."

So Lisa and her parents moved to Florida
To live by the sea
Because Lisa loved the ocean
And when she dies, that's where she wanted to be

She spent her days painting
And horseback riding in by the bay
But one day she met this guy
And his name was Jay

They collected seashells together
And talked about all kinds of things
And then one day while walking
He handed her a ring It said,"I love you,"
Which brought tears to Lisa's eyes
And when he put it on her finger
She began to cry

He asked her what was wrong, and she replied,
"I've got leukemia, and about a month more."
He said," No matter what, I love you,"
"And no matter what, you are the one I adore."

So they spent everyday together
And swam in the Atlantic all day
But Lisa was getting weaker
And it was hard for her stay awake

So one day Lisa painted her picture
And gave it to Jay She said,
"I want you to remember me,"
"Even when I leave this place."

But one day while they were walking
And searching for seashells in the sand
Lisa collapsed and started to lose her breath
And said to Jay, "Please hold my hand."
"I love you more than anyone,"
You are my only true love,"
"But now my time is up,"
"And I'll watch over you from above,"

Then Lisa's body was lifeless
As she lay in Jay's arms
And he sat there all day
And kept her safe from harm!

True Love

2008-12-09T03:02:00.000-08:00

Girl and guy were speeding over 100 mph on a motorcycle.

Girl: Slow down. Im scared.

Guy: No this is fun.

Girl: No its not. Please, its too scary!

Guy: Then tell me you love me.

Girl: Fine, I love you. Slow down!

Guy: Now give me a BIG hug. (Girl hugs him)

Guy: Can you take my helmet off and put it on? Its bugging me.

In the paper the next day: A motorcycle had crashed into a building because of break failure. Two people were on the motorcycle, but only one survived.

The truth was that halfway down the road, the guy realized that his breaks broke, but he didn't want to let the girl know. Instead, he had her say she loved him, felt her hug one last time, then had her wear his helmet so she would live even though it meant he would die.

Innocence Is Lost

2008-12-09T02:47:00.000-08:00

Collecting the toys, the tattoo, the cards,
That hide and seek team waiting in the backyards,
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

Laying on the mother's lap and gazing the stars,
With our super bicycles chasing the cars,
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

Those Heavy school books, that heavy school bag,
No worries about future and never a looking back,
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

That dance in the rain, that hypothetical stomach pain,
Those funny toon movies, those stare at the planes.
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

A sudden fever on Monday or just before a test,
B'day cakes and candies were all time best,
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

Doing some mistake and then hiding from the Mom,
A feel of triumph when DAD was back home,
Sometimes I feel that innocence is lost.

Hurry to school, Hurry to home,
Hurry to play, now only Hurry is left alone,
The time kept going and we kept growing,

Unknowingly somewhere that childishness was narrowing,
And today I suddenly felt that INNOCENCE is LOST.
