The Greatest Love Of All

The Greatest Love of all is the song of Whitney Houston. It’s one of my inspiration songs.
“I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me “
At Praow district near Chiang Dao, Chiang Mai, I meet a father who works for the missionary. He brought us to meet the children in the center. About 20 Km. from Praow district (on the mountain). How he calls the shed without a support as you see in the picture “a center for the children” with contains about 30 children. The children welcome us with a song and father played a guitar. What a wonderful! As a moment the happiness was occurred in to my heart. I was looking around the place. There is nothing! But why the children can sing the beautiful song with the power which came from their hearts.
The father was introduced an old man who lives here with the children. Many years ago the old found there are many children can’t go to school because there are no schools in the mountains. It’s quite difficult to get down the mountain every day for school. One day he built up a shack and invites the children who want to go to school. The children can stay here during the week for school. The old man has no work, on salary! But he can take care the children! He plants some vegetables, raise some animals such as chicken, pig, duck to be the food and the children need to bring the rice. It’s the sufficiency economy way! Really!

Today we brought a good new for them, 30 children were sponsored by god parents in France which mean in each month they will receive some money from their parents to be use for their educations. The old man can smile…money isn’t the big things here but some time we need it for an emergency case. If somebody get sick! If the rain won’t come that mean no rice! Etc… This is some thing that people can make for other. Many people never find the happiness because they look across the small things around them; they never know the word “giving”. One another day, I’ve succeed my work with my happiness and smile of the children. I found the greatest love in my heart!

I'm feeling you

Sometimes, I imagine the world without you
But most times, I’m just so happy that I ever found you
It’s a complicated web, that you weave inside my head
So much pleasure with such painHope we always,
always stay the same
I’m feelin’ the way you cross my mind.
And you save me in the knick of time.
I’m ridin’ the highs, I’m diggin’ the lows
‘Cause at least I feel alive.
I’ve never faced so many emotional days.
But my life is good. I’m feelin’ you. I’m feelin’ you
You go, and then I can finally breathe in
‘Cause baby I know, in the end you’re never leavin’
Well we’re rarely ever sane,
I drive you crazy and you do the same.
But your fire fills my soul.
And it warms me up like no one knows
I'm feeling you!
