As-salaam Alaikum!
Been awhile. I know. I have just been studying the world around me.
When you SHUT UP, LISTEN, and WATCH for just a moment, it is remarkable what one will discover.
I have learned so much from watching children. I have learned so much from adults that are still trapped in childhood.
Some children are growing up in evil times. Those children sometimes find their way out of the madness and some don't.
Below I write of a child who never escaped the evilness of this world.
She says: "I was just a little girl who they said didn't understand. But, I know what I saw out of that
window pane.
Grandaddy was digging with sweat dripping down. I could hear the sound of the crunch
of the gravel on the ground. And then I saw him put a man in the hole, I saw him put
him in the ground. He put that man way way down.
Please, let my eyes deceive me. Oh, God, let my eyes deceive me.
When I close my eyes to sleep at night, monsters tumble in my head. I cry out in the
darkness and run from my bed.
I keep remembering that day, he put that man in the ground. It makes my head ache,
my chest pound. I cry in my head to let my eyes deceive me!
I was just a little girl who was told that I didn't understand about the digging, the gravel,
the hole, and that man. I have tried to block it from my mind. I was never allowed to feel.
I was just a little girl that day. My life changed in a dark dark kinda way. Still, I scream
inside of my head "I saw him put that man in the ground!"
Oh, let my eyes deceive me!"

How many children out there must live this life because of the evil that is created in this world? Somewhere along this journey called life, the heartache and the evil must end!
