The Angel

Just to share...

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"


"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."


The child further inquired, "But tell me,... here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."

God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."

Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"

God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

"Who will protect me?"

God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."

"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."

God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

"You will simply call her, 'Mom.'"

Good Job Mr Alexander Yee for being one of the few to BE DIFFERENT !!

In relation to the photo, do allow me to share something here..

A newborn baby is just like an empty tablet.. or a piece of white clean cloth...

There is no two persons in this world are born the same - same as in the features, skin color, shape of the eyes, nose and et cetera.. NO, there is none. God has destined that every human being born is special and of his/her own aura.

Of course when the baby grows up, he/she will be the greatest copycat especially the first 3 years. Copycat means they would take the parents as their role models. Speaking about models, even when we see the models doing the catwalks- they are so good, aren't they? - and usually the ladies, including myself will try to be like the models- CONFIDENT and FULL OF CHARISMA !! The same concept goes to a baby, they would think that the parents or guardians are so PERFECT and they want to be just like them.

Hence, everyone around her especially the parents should give the best example - in our words, in our acts and in our faith, i mean the best you could, anyway. In every aspects, if parents educate good manners to the child, then good the child will be. If parents teach the child in a very harsh way, very strict, very ignorant, very pampering, then..... Well, I shall leave the blank field for you to fill in yourself.

Nevertheless, surely teachers and friends also have a bit of share especially when our children have started going to school BUT, as parents - we can always monitor. Monitor them closely, but make sure we give some space for them. Every creatures on earth needs a little bit of good and positive freedom though.

Based on my OBSERVATIONS- at my working place, at the churches, at the malls or in others' cars while driving, or anywhere - I would say the child normally inherits most of the attitudes or behaviours from the parents/guardians. Thus, when we think our children are not behaving well - LET US NOT PUT THE BLAME ON THEM ALONE, but we look at ourselves instead, and don't just reflect BUT discern.

To recap, if we want our child to become somebody WELL RESPECTED - educate and nurture them well and the child will surely become someone who is DARE TO BE DIFFERENT.
