Silly ol goat....

 

How strange it is that when I finally get the chance to sleep early, I become so frustrated because I just can’t sleep. I start to count sheep and all sorts of everything, exercise deep breathing, read  surahs Kursi, the 3 Quls… think of nice and happy moments and  the list goes on...

Try to read a book and after a few pages, I can’t recall what I have read, Went back to office played poker but the mood was not right. Switched on the tv, nothing interesting ... crappy movies and sitcoms. 

Watched the news channel unhappy with the current news, trails of murders, child abuse, rape reports…..the world is full of misery, unkindness and cruelty. 

God! that made me more depressed. 

 These days it is very difficult to say that this person or that person is bad but when a marriage is on the rock or goes down the pit mostly children will suffer the consequences. I don't want to pass judgement either but it is like butchering the future of the effected children  due to unresolved matters of the adult so called parents.

I know of a married couple, the wife is the kindest woman I could ever imagined. Despite her never ending sacrifices, hubby messed up big time. She easily forgive him Patch up and tried hard to rebuild their life together, picking the broken pieces along the way and gluing them back with selfless acts and thoughts. All because for the love she has for him and all of their seven children. 

... and he mess up again and again

She took him back, suffered in silence. She never believed for a moment that he was of unsound mind but continue to entertain and treated him well. Because of his foolishnessn, the responsibility to support the family (financially) shifted from his shoulder to hers.

Months of staying at home, looking at how his wife struggled to make ends meet, taught him good lesson and he started to function as the bread earner of the family.

5 months later, the wife died of leukimia.

Almost instantly he was left with seven kids and no fixed source of income. Instead of getting a proper job and tending to his kids, he sent them off to stay with their maternal grandmother. The kids were trying to come to term of losing their loving mother, but was badly shaken by unscrupulous attitude of their father with embedded thoughts that  their father wanted to abandon them. Poor, poor kids.

That silly old goat…..

He has been married and divorced more than three times now.

I'm yawning ... old fools bore me to death!

Good night folks…….

I am signing off and log in to dreamland….zzzzzzz
