Butterflies, Blossoms, Vines and Cacti

Children are like butterflies -

a friend 's daughter

People are like blossoms


colorful and scented


All these are found in our garden

Can anyone tell me their names


I am like this rambling
gourd or courgette vine


This is the vegetable.

But some folk are like cacti ready to prick you if you get close enough.

Yesterday I dropped in to see an old lady on the first death anniversary of her husband but she vas cold and indifferent.. She 's been like a cactus all her life, maybe her method of self protection.

Today I had to go to a bank known for its cactus people.I prayed really hard before , the Lord 's favor showered on me and a man gave me the information I sought - after fussing a little.I stood before him with a pathetic face and literally begged him to help me ...so he took pity on me.

In India you have to try all sorts of PR techniques to get your job done LOL.

Today Simran came for her lessons. She did not turn up yesterday.Before school work, I trimmed her hair,shampooed , washed and oiled it. Made her vash her face, hands and feet with soap.

That child is a victim of neglect and emotional abuse.The mother favors her son.Daughter is of less value.We want to make her feel loved and needed.

I applaud and admire the way, you my blog friends are raising your children ,many of them with special needs. I am inspired by you and I also want to do something for children.
