THE TOWER

We're all going up, striving for something,

A better house, better cars, better jobs...

But what really matters the most?

That is the billion dollar question, right?

Why do we do all of these, what is the end point?

We know the end though we don't know _when_ it comes,

But along the way, striving for these things, let us not forget those who love us, those who were there, those we laughed with, those we became stronger with,

This life is indeed vanity but what's more is what comes after our race, 

Will you be the winner of the race or the loser?

Eternity is longer than our mortality,

I can't not make it home after all I've been through here,

So with each floor I climb, I must never forget what lies beyond the top of the tower,

It's either I fall off,

Or I fly beyond,

So, dear reader, what will it be?

Want to fly with me?


From a flower in her garden,

The Rebirth.

 A phoenix dies and is reborn. Have you ever wondered why it has to burn? It needs to empty the old self and bring in the new. Fire strengthens. It toughens. It hardens. I'm silver tried in the furnace, Burned seven times, I'm shining now, I'm shining. I'm stronger, better than ever. I'm growing and I won't stop, Not until all is finished. I'll keep pushing, I'll keep holding on. . . . Taiwolilly✌

The Truth

The room was dark. It could easily have been called a conference room. It had everything a conference room could have—chairs arranged around the huge center table along with huge flat screen Tvs lining up the wall in front of them. But there was something omnious, almost evil about it. This wasn't a usual gathering to discuss sales or business plans, this is where the would be fate of the world would be discussed—in less than two minutes. CEOs of different conglomerates of the world trooped in one by one. Some very public figures and very wealthy men were also in attendance. Men and women of different races sat round the table, until finally, only one seat was left. As soon as he entered, every man and woman stood up and bowed. They began to hail him.  ********* "Come on Honey, it's time to go. We're leaving." Her Dad said as he helped her with her remaining luggage. "Why do we have to go Dad? I love it here....

Storm and Bliss

Inspired by a prompt given by my lovely kid sister ❤️❤️🤗🤗  "In storm and bliss, I will be there." These were your dying words to me, even as I stare at your coffin as they lower you into the dirt, the words echo in my subconscious. "You lied." I sniffed. You weren't there. You weren't there for his birth, or when he took his first step. When he got his got his first bump on the head or when he needed you to hold him, you weren't there. His first word was "Dada", I cried and cried that day; how you seem to be the first one he called but you weren't there to gloat to me about it or to say how proud you were of him. You shouldn't have promised Dave, you really shouldn't have. You're not here. But you could have been. I told you not to go, but you couldn't bear seeing someone else get hurt, and that was what I loved about you, always so selfless, but it was also what got you killed. But even though you...
