A few words for my nephew if he ever read this,
Today is the last day of September in the year of nine.
A few advises from an uncle who live far away
To the eldest son of the sibling of four.

Never hurt yourself, child if there is no justice.
Never let yourself be hurt if there is no justice.
Never let others hurt you especially if things are petty.
For there are no reasons for you to be hurt for you are not born a slave.

Things may be bleak and dark if these ever happen to you,
So never let it happen to you but when it does,
You shoulder will be the one to bear the weight.
For it is a responsibility of Man.

You know what it is in you,
And you know what you want, and don’t want.
So never hesitate for it, but
Remember, to look further then what you can see now.

Metaphor #1 - The Wall Chapter 1

What is a Wall?

A Wall is something you can see and cannot see;

A Wall is something you can feel and cannot feel;

A Wall is something you can touch yet cannot touch.

What is a Wall, sometimes you ask yourself.

Why is the Wall here?

How? When? Where?

Sometimes the Wall is warm and welcoming;

Sometimes the Wall is grey and cold;

But no matter how it looks like,

It’s still a Wall.

Who knows what’s over the Wall;

Sometimes you know what’s over the Wall yet ,

Don’t know what is over the Wall and from there ,

You will start to feel the Wall.

Leaning on the Wall,

Trying to hear what’s over at the other side of that Wall.

Sometimes when you’re a lucky,

You might be able to peek through that little hole or gap between the bricks of that Wall.

But you know, over that Wall

Might have something that you do not want to see,

Or something that don’t allow you to see

Therefore in the end you wont be able to see anything

Walls can be thick, thin, tall or even short.

Sometimes the Walls are friendly, softly crumbling down for you to climb over it;

Sometimes the Walls are harsh, getting higher with you knowing it,

At times the bricks wield so high it fell on you.

Sometimes the Wall unbuild itself, placing the bricks somewhere else;

Sometimes the Wall unbuild itself, placing the brick just besides the opening that to some point it gotten so high that it will falls on you while you’re trying to get over that little opening.

Sometimes the Wall can be easily unbuild by your own hands.

Sometimes the Wall is indestructible.

From time to time, the Wall may multiply it heights with a different type of brick or walls.

You may or may not know why it is there; sometimes you may or may not even know what’s the consequences it will bring to you.
