SEASONS OF LIFE

Charity begins at home, so the old saying goes. Anything has to start at home. Before one does good to outsiders, one must start it at home or in the family. The family is a base or a platform for anybody to blossom and make it big. We all have heard of cases where some people are said to have a lot of problems in their lives because they never had blessings from their families. Everyone needs a family. I believe that the most horrible thing in life is to have no family. One can have all things in the w orld but happiness will never come if the person does not have a family. If we have a family, it gives us a feeling of belonging. We feel that we are not alone. The loneliest people are the ones without a family. The happiest people most of the times comes from good and healthy families. The importance of having a good and healthy family needs not to be overemphasized. It’s an inborn thing. It’s just natural.

W hen you dance to the devil’s tune, on a devil’s dancing floor and you dance with the devil himself never expect that he will change his dancing steps to yours but rather he will change you. You can never be in control in a devils castle. One would ask how does one end up dancing with the devil in the first place?

What happens next is the changing of a man from better to worse. What remains of him/her is a shadow of the former person he/she was. Then people will start to wonder what has happened to the man. Questions they would ask but answers they will not find. Trying to trace the origin of the sudden change of the person, you will find out that there is a parasite living in the person. I know you are wondering, what is up with the devil’s issue? Yeah, it is just a figurative description of people who are undeserv...
