　　：As High As A Kite

　　I was sitting on the beach the other day watching a kite ***In the shape of a two winged aircraft*** flying high in the sky. It made wonderful acrobatic maneuvers as if piloted by a person with a lifetimes experience of flying. However, we all know a kite cannot fly without the power of the wind. So how real was the performance I was watching?

　　Firstly, it took a person with great imagination to design a kite shaped like a tiger moth aircraft that can encompass the aerodynamics to be powered by the wind. That accomplishment in itself takes great skill and awareness of the forces of nature.

　　Secondly, the person who purchased the kite needs to read the instructions and learn how to apply the winds forces to achieve a great display. The mind and hand coordination requires a mastery to attain the required skills.

　　Thirdly, without the power of the wind, the kite would just be a charming, colorful, textured replica of a Tiger Moth aircraft. We cannot see the wind....but we know it must exist, for we can feel it and see the consequences of its power.

　　So, we have a relationship between the designer and manufacturer which ultimately will connect to the user. It then needs a power of nature that cannot be seen in order to allow the kite to operate. The display I was observing had a lot of behind the scenes work that needed to be performed, before the show could go on.

　　：Chasing After Your Dream

　　Dreams! How nice do they sound? I am not talking about the dreams we have when we are asleep but about the life long aspirations in each one of us. I am sure many or rather shoud I say all of us have goals in our lives. It could be the goal to be the next millionaire or to be a popular celebrity. Even if your goal is something small, you should be proud that you do have a goal.

　　Some never tend to think about goals in life. Although this may sound as a surprise it is ture. These people take life as it comes without planning and go with the flow of events in their life. But again there are many who love planning for everything in their life.

　　In fact, having a goal in life would make anyone more focused and determined in reaching that target. Wish to get a job as a web designer? Your dream can come ture if you work on your dream. How, you might ask? Start learning web-designing skills and when you're skilled, you will find that you can get your desired job easily. So, do you see that all it takes for your goals to materialize is some work on your part? I have heard some grumble that their dreas are just dreams and can never become true. Well, it all depends on what kind of goals you're aiming at. If you're dying to be the next star in Hollywood but you're camera-shy and you don't know anything about acting, your dream to make it big in Hollywood might remain as a dream. But if you're very determined to make it and you're already enrolling yourself in agting classes and talking to experiencedacors about acting, you can be pretty sure that you're already half-way there to make your dream into a reality. After all, if one is willing to put in the efforts, their goals can become within reach.

　　So never say that your dream will forever be a dream. Go ahead, plan on making that dream a reality and watch how easily you can attain that target.

　　Good luck.

　　：Not a simple dress

　　"Do you like my dress?" she asked of a passing stranger." My mommy made it just for me." She said with a tear in her eye.

　　"Well, I think it's very pretty, so tell me little one, why are you crying?"

　　With a quiver in her voice the little girl answered." After Mommy made me this dress, she had to go away."

　　"Well, now," said the lady, "with a little girl like you waiting for her, I'm sure she'll be right back."

　　"No Ma'am, you don't understand," said the child through her tears, "my daddy said she's up in heaven now with Grandfather."

　　Finally the woman realized what the child meant, and why she was crying. Kneeling down she gently cradled the child in her arms and together they cried for the mommy that was gone.

　　Then suddenly the little girl did something that the woman thought was a bit strange. She stopped crying, stepped back from the woman and began to sing. She sang so softly that it was almost a whisper. It was the sweetest sound the woman had ever heard, almost like the song of a very small bird.

　　After the child stopped singing she explained to the lady, "My mommy used to sing that song to me before she went away, and she made me promise to sing it whenever I started crying and it would make me stop."

　　"See," she exclaimed, "it did, and now my eyes are dry!"

　　As the woman turned to go, the little girl grabbed her sleeve, "Ma'am, can you stay just a minute? I want to show you something."

　　"Of course," she answered, "what do you want me to see?"

　　Pointing to a spot on her dress, she said, "Right here is where my mommy kissed my dress, and here," pointing to another spot, "and here is another kiss, and here, and here.Mommy said that she put all those kisses on my dress so that I would have her kisses for every booboo'that made me cry."

　　Then the lady realized that she wasn't just looking at a dress, no, she was looking at a mother…who knew that she was going away and would not be there to kiss away the hurts that she knew her daughter would get.

　　So she took all the love she had for her beautiful little girl and put them into this dress, that her child now so proudly wore.

　　She no longer saw a little girl in a simple dress. She saw a child wrapped…in her mother's love.
