Bene’s answer
August 29, 2008he texted me with an answer to the query that bugged my sleep last night.
Lawrence of Arabia once said, ‘that nothing is written’. Leonidas with his 300 men told the doubting Greeks, ‘they’ll stand and fight the impossible. Forest Gump gave us the line ‘life is like a box of chocolates, we never know what we’ll get. And Frank Sinatra sand that ‘he’ll reach the unreachable star. And I say, ‘Whatever it is, you’re very much lovable, capable and worthwhile’.
Thanks, bene, for the wonderful message. 
unable to stop what is bound II
i feel sad that yesterday did not turn out to be as happy as i hoped it will. she chose to hide in her own world and thoughts as well rather than join us in celebrating the day made for her and her alone. the only consolation i have is to know things or the day turned out well for her after much reflection. maybe it did. i do not have a way to know yet. she did not let me. :’(
then a thought came to me. why aren’t we really given the power to stop what is bound to happen? Worse, why are we even given the window to fear what is indispensable? for whatever reason i had a sudden thought of that, i would not really like to dwell.
by the way, while waiting that she be fine, my brother and i watched THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION. Nice film. Very inspiring. After he has crawled a river of shit, he came clean on the outside.
