Dear Alwan Sir,

One little girl used to give me greeting cards prepared by her, when she visits me from the U S of A.

I still cherish them as loving gifts from her!

Not really..everyone makes the same mistakes just that the elderly learnt to cover up that they ever made mistakes! Senility does not always equal to wisdom!LOL

I've learned.... That when you're in love, it shows.

I've learned....that when you are in love..its shows for a while..then the show comes down to baseline and we are ready for another love and show again!

I've learned..that even 10 people saying to me "you've made my day" it still cant make my day..cos my day might differ.

I've learned.... That having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the most peaceful feelings in the world.

Not really..its not easy to have a child fall asleep in your arms cos you cant sleep! The best feeling is a child sleeping on his bed and I sleep on mine.

You Wonder, what happened.

once bitten ,twice shy again -they say

Its not really true..I have read that a person who has been tru a particular event in life or committed a mistake has the tendency to actually repeat the same in future and face similar scenarios.

Its more like you cant really straighten a dog's tail.
