The Humanoid Cat



I loved cats since my childhood, but two years ago something happened that made me to hate cats. There was a very pretty cat in the back of  my school, she was one of the cutest cats I have ever seen.  I believed  her behavior and potential could be a thesis topic for a farrier. She was so wired though, she spent a long time climbing the tree and when she reached to the top of the tree, she would come back and do the same thing again and again for more than ten times. Sometimes she just laid down on the grass and turned her face toward the sun just like some women that lay under the sun in beaches. I don't know why but I loved that cat so much.... I remember one day, I was so sad and disappointed, I sat on the ground and the cat came to me, I threw a biscuit for her and she ate all of it, she looked at me and I said go... I don't have anymore, but she didn't go. She put her head on my feet and fell sleep; I started to pat her but after some minutes she jumped on my leg and I shoot her with my feet and ran away. I didn't understand why she jumped on my leg, but I still loved her because her first action was really interesting for me.
The next day, my friends and I were sitting on the same place that I was the day before. The cat came to us, I started to pat her again but I didn't have anything to give him, so he went away. One of my friends said that's disgusting, I said why? he said I don't know, I just feel she is like a human, look how she comes to you and looks at you, how she makes you pat her and how she rubs her body to your legs, Or how she becomes so wild at the time that you really don't expect this, just like some people. Since that day until now, I hate cats, and I know it is not a good reason, but I just hate them.... I think some of animals really have human's attributives. Sometimes we simulate some bad human's attributives to animals, because we think that animal's attributives look bad in human's body. We never think that human's attributives look worse in animal's body. Just like that cat.

HELP... HELP







We all do some mistakes in our life... some of them are small mistakes which we could forget really soon, but some of them we can't even forget... they actually affect our life and will stay in our mind forever.
The major problem that we people have is that we never try to learn anything from other's mistakes ,and we always prefer to do them, and see the results by ourselves. Then we ask ourselves "why I did the same mistake as he/she did?".
It was two years ago when one of my friends did a huge mistake, and he told me to never do that in my life. Last year I did the same mistake, I remember I was so upset and I asked myself why I didn't listen to him? 
So I tried to come up with something so I can always remember to do not do that mistake again... I wrote something in my notebook and memorized it, and it actually helped me a lot.


" I heard someone screaming. I couldn't understand what he is saying. The voice was coming from the well. I think someone needed my help. I moved my head forward and screamed, WHO IS THERE?, then he answered " be careful, someone is back of you ", I just turned my head, and someone pushed me down. when I opened my eyes, I found myself at the end of the well, I couldn't stand up, my body hurt so bad. I screamed HELP...HELP. After some minutes someone came beside the well and said WHO IS THERE????"

Okay, that was what I wrote in my notebook, It helped me to always learn from other's mistakes and to don't do them. It helped me to always look forward when I want to do something , even if it is not an important thing.

Albretch Durer






In a small village near Nuremberg, a family lived with 18 kids. The father of the family had to work 18 hours a day.  In this situation Albrecht Durer and his brother Albert (two of 18 children) had a dream in their mind. They both wished to be a painter, but they knew that their father can never pay the money for their education. One night after a long time discussing in bed, two brothers decided to do something. They decided to throw the coin in the air and the looser had to go and work in the mine and give the money to the other brother so he can study in a University. Then the brother who finished his education after 4 years  had to sell his painting and support the other one to go to University, so both can reach their wish. In Saturday morning they threw the coin in the air when they were in the church.  Albrecht Durer won and went to Nuremberg, instead Albert went to a dangerous mine in the south. Albert worked full time in the mine for four years to support his brother who was in the University. Albrecht's paintings were better than his teachers, he got a lot of money from selling his painting during his graduation year. When the young artist went back to his village, his family held a  banquet for Albrecht's return and his success. After dinner Albrecht stood up and told his brother: " Albert, now it is your turn, you can go to Nuremberg and I will support you as much as I can." All heads turned to the end of the table where Albert was sitting. Tears from Albert's eyes came down. He stood up and said:" No brother, I can not go to Nuremberg, it is too late, see what happened to my hands during this four years of mining work,my fingers  broke several times and I feel  pain in my right hand, I can not even hold a cup in my hand.
One day Albrecht went to his brother for appreciating all of the hard works that he did for him, he took his brother hands that were attached to each other  and turned them skyward. He painted his brother's hands and called his painting "hands", but world understood all the emotions that were in the painting and called it "prayer hands."
More than 450 years passed from that story and Albrecht's paintings are in every great museum around the world.


I learned that sacrifice is a great thing that not every body can do it, sacrifice can be painful and hurt you sometimes, but the effect that it has on someone else would heal all your pains. Mother Teresa has a good quote "Love cannot remain by itself ; it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action, and that action is service. " It means If you love somebody you should serve him/her, you should always help your love ones and sacrifice for them. Remember sometimes you may change someone else's life just by doing small things.
