The Heroes

The heart of our hearts, the bone of my bones. The fresh of my fresh, The sweet of sweets. As the first man was happy for the creation of woman from his rib, the same way I am happy with my parents. I really love my parents, as I love myself with all my heart. I wish to thank God for their presence. No one can separate me from my parents. To separate, it will be death. "My parents are my strong weapons, powerful tools for my defense. Whatever I do, I remember my parents. Even if its peace, even if its danger. I appreciate for my protection, since I was born. They protected me with all their hearts, as a leopard protects its young, as a dog protects its meat. They loved me, as meat attracts flies. Really they did a good job. I praise their services and uncountable support provided to me since I was born until the level I am. I respect my parents, and I can't speak evil to them. If I do, it's a sin and a real curse. I can't forget when I was young, they looked after me together with my sisters and other family relatives at large. The orphans and the disabled. it's their efforts that made me what I am. Not only me, but also you. Your parents made you what you're. Don't despise them, our parents our life. The family heroes, gods of earth and foundation for human development. They are real heroes!! We can't despise them, they are our life. Our foundation.
