 Well well well youll must have already read about my pets squirrel in previous blog, now it's time to know about my other pet dog Rexcy. Rexcy was just 4 weeks old when my aunt decided to get a pet. She always wanted a golden retriever due to their friendly nature . One morning while she was working and, i was asleep an unknown man without knocking the door entered in. My aunt saw him and asked several questions but he couldn't answer and started stammering and was overcome with fright and ran away. So that was the time she decided to get a guard dog not just an ordinary one but a German Shepherd. It took us two days to find a good name. He very naughty and love to eat flies. He hold a special place in heart as I have spent most of the time with him. Also taught him many skills. Now he is all grown and still he eat flies which is not good.

LIFE

  Ahh what to talk about life... Sometimes it gets so hard that you feel like you wanna give up but you can't ,you have to think about your loved ones but unfortunately some people can't hold the pain and tend to commit suicide or try to do some stuff maybe put cuts on hand or some other things. Nobody can describe life in general. Everyone has something or the other in their lives which keeps on hurting them. Why do we have to deal so much where in we only hoped for a simple life . Sometimes it is unfair. Life is worth living you have so much to achieve. Have a fixed routine, wake up early. An individual have to nap for around 7 to 8 hours to keep you active. Exercise regularly, pray everyday, engage yourself in some useful activities, should have a good friend circle. If your feeling low then you can explore new places if you're a adventurous type of person or sit at the beach and you'll feel relaxed.

 Animais de estimação is known as pets in Portuguese. Today i would love to share some images of my pets. Puchu  My first pet was a squirrel. I named him Puchu as he looked cute and was very mischievous. My dad found him near our storage room. This little fellow was tiny and took him several days to open his eyes. I would keep a check on him if he was doing fine or not. As he grew older i got used to his bites.  Puchu One fine day he got a chance and escaped from cage. I was worried about him thinking what other squirrel would do to him. After few days he returned home in search of food and i decided not to cage him anymore. He became more active, he ran faster than before and would come to eat everyday. But after few years he passed away. He probably might had  consumed some poison. It was during the end of the summer month when i found a pair of baby squirrel. They neither had fur on their body nor they were healthy. My mother helped me to take care of them and soo...

Untold Battles

Was he too young for this?   He was only 10 years old when  He had to deal with family problems Who knew then  He also had to suffer in silence. For others dad are their heroes  But for him he was a villain Is he strong? Or is he overreacting? Yes he is strong Others who think he's not are wrong  From the kid he was an adult Who had to deal anxiety in silence Though everyone thought he was smiling But inside he was fighting his own battles  Only God knew about his sufferings.

Grandparents

My grandmother and me Grandparents are truly a blessing from God. Lucky are those who still have their grandparents. There're some kids who are very clingy, they confide their feelings to their grandparents as they feel  their secrets are safe with them . In some cases the kids find their grandparents are more understandable than their parents who keep on  pesturing them with sets of instructions. If you've spent some time with your grandparents I'm sure they must've told you about their stories, past experiences how they had to look for some source of income at an early age , they had no leisure time for them as they had to wash dishes, clothes look after family etc. I still remember my granny telling me how she would take my elder sister to school during rainy season because of unsurfaced roads. My elder sister, she was my granny's puppet, when she was a kid . She used to take her everywhere with her . Now you'll ask me why she would not take you with her ? As...
