#1

I can still remember little birthday parties.
Where little children come, all dressed pretty.
Sweet little dresses,
Clean new shoes.
They have all come,
To share my happiness and my cake.
But as we grew up,
These things seem to be gone from our lives.
Friends come and go,
Betrayal and jealousy came frequently too.
They snatch everything that was once innocent, pretty and happy.
Age catches up with us,
And change us from the little kid we once were,
Into things which is filled with hatred and jealousy.
As our memory fades,
How long can we remember our first birthday?
How happy we once were,
As we blew out candles on our birthday cake,
and receive presents from all our happy friends?
Making a birthday wish and getting cake smeared on our faces?
We were once happy.
We all were.
But as things change,
These happy moments fade to dust,
Which you and I can no longer retrieve again.

My only birthday wish for this year is I hope that there would be World Peace and everyone would be happy. And I really wish that the Korean prisoners facing death when they had done nothing and do not deserve death, that they would be released healthy and well. I pray that nothing will happen to them anymore. No more deaths please. Killing of innocent people is not the way to solve things. Let them go.

P.S : An eye for an eye, a ear for a ear. This may be what the Bible teaches. But the Bible also teaches to FORGIVE your enemies many many times. Do you remember that? Somehow, this does not feel like a happy day anymore.
