When I was a little boy, I would play outside for hours on sunny summer days and then have a deep and peaceful sleep at night. Sometimes, I’d have some vivid dreams, making me for a moment. I would stare out into the darkness to see if anything was there and then over and go back to sleep. I can still remember a few times when I woke up, out into the darkness, and actually someone there. It was Mom over me as I slept. Each time she told me to go back to sleep and I closed my eyes again, feeling and loved.
I asked Mom why she watched me sleep from time to time, but seeing my own children so fast, I think I know why. She wanted to catch a moment in time and it in her heart forever. I just that she carried a lot of those moments with her into Heaven when she at only 55.
Last night I was sleeping lightly I suddenly felt someone near me. I opened my eyes and saw Mom’s standing in the room, smiling at me. And then she was gone.
Now may say that this was just a dream, a wish or part of an old . To me, though, it was that Mom’s loving spirit was still watching over me. To me, it was evidence enough to know that one day I would be with her and everyone I have ever loved.
Trust in their love. Know that your own life can be full of , too. Then joyfully go out and live it with a brave heart and a smiling soul.

Without your parents, we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world. Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them when you’re off on your own. It’s OK to get angry but angry actions don’t help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, journal about your feelings, or talk to a friend. 2.
Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you don’t get what you want or you have to clean.
