In memory of my dear friend SAMMY Y. SANTOS ➕🙏

A lovely poem on overcoming the influence of past traumas, embracing the potential for emotional growth, and recognising the deeper, often invisible, aspects of the human experience.

Little Prince Poem

And what, exactly, is that metaphorical thorn for you?

“It's madness
to hate all roses
because you got scratched with one thorn,

to give up all dreams
because one of them didn't come true,

to give up all attempts
because one of them failed.

It's folly to condemn all your friends
because one has betrayed you,

to no longer believe in love
just because someone was unfaithful
or didn't love you back,

to throw away all your chances to be happy
because something went wrong.

There will always be another opportunity,
another friend,
another love,
a new strength.

For every end,
there is always a new beginning.....

And now here is my secret,
a very simple secret:
It is only with the heart
that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the eye."

~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry,
The Little Prince

Good day everyone!

I want to start by saying thank you to everyone who has liked and followed me on FB and has taken the time to read my shared bible quotes and other important information. I consider myself fortunate to have each of you and to have you share my posts.

Nevertheless, I am happy to announce that I will continue to operate my FB account under a new name at the request of friends who value my posts. My FB account will now be called " Michael's Cornerstone: Life Lines."

Again, thank you and God bless,

Mike
