A Message To You

A message to you my child. I am writing this message to you - my child. To tell you how much I love you. Listen carefully and listen well, because one day, I won't be here anymore. Live your life and live it right. Do always what is good. Help others along the way. Teach your children good things. Remember that, they learn what they see. Talk to me now if you need advice. If you wait too long - It might be too late. I might not be here anymore. I am not perfact and never claimed to be, but I have lived in this world more then you. Remember I love you and always will. I know about life more then you. If I give you advice it's for your own good. You will find out later - that what I told you was true. Dear child this is my message to you... 03/02/2013 Written by Lucilla M. Carrillo

what a wonderful message for a dear child, How many children do you have, Lucilla? You asked me about my Spanish. I majored in it at BYU but never had the chance to really "learn" it so that I could understand movies very well, stuff like that. By the way, are you from a spanish speaking country?

A golden advise full of wisdom! My dear Lucilla, instead children to learn from other people's mistake the tend to learn from their own! I loved it. It is so human so christian! God bless you!
