2. A man was an avid gardner...
Saw a small butterfly laying a few eggs in one of the pots in his garden since that day he
looked at the egg with ever growing curiosity and eagerness.
The egg started to move and shake a little.
He was exited to see a new life coming up right in front of his eyes.
He spent hours watching the egg now.
The egg started to expand and develop cracks..
A tiny head and antennae started to come out ever so slowly.
The man's excitement knew no bounds he got his magnifying glasses and sat to watch the
life and body of a pupa coming out.
He saw the struggle of the tender pupa and couldn't resist his urge to HELP.
He went and got a tender force to help the egg break, a nip here a nip there to help the
struggling life. And LO!
The pupa was out the man was ecstatic!
He waited now each day for the pupa to grow and fly about like a beautiful butterfly, but
Alas that never happened the larvae pupa had a oversized head and kept crawling along in
the pot for the full 4 weeks and died!
Depressed the man went to his botanist friend and asked the reason.
His friend told him the struggle to break out of the egg helps the larvae to send blood to its
wings and the head push helps the head to remain small so that the tender wings can
support it thru its 4 week life cycle, in his eagerness to help the man destroyed a beautiful
life!
Struggles help all of us, that's why a wee bit of effort goes a long way to develop our
strength to face life's difficulties!

4. My therapist had quite a lot to say
When I explained I was unmoved by chocolates and bouquets.
“What are you looking for in love,” she asked, “that you can’t find?” I said, “The smell of cordite
would brighten up my day.” Does he wear his jacket loose to hide the holster?
Does he keep his schedule free to cut and run?
I’m the girl dressed in black in the Lotus Elan And I’m looking for a man of action.
She says I long to nurture secretly, But sensitive and sweet gives me a case of ennui.
See, I want a hero from a Hong Kong action flick
With a brand new Smith amp; Wesson and a taste for irony
Does his hair smell like the smoke from burning buildings?
Does he have a dragon tattoo on his arm?
I’m the girl on the train with the timer for the bomb And I’m looking for a man of action.
I could be happy with a man who’s built for speed
A heat trace like an F-16, a ruthless sense of style
Strange clicking on his phone line, scars he can’t explain
Who never takes the first cab and who doesn’t often smile.
Afraid I’m gonna have to miss our session
Hope you’ve got another patient due to make confession
I’ll be at the airport in my trench coat and my shades
Looking for a long-legged dark-haired indiscretion.
Does he drive like hell-hounds know his license number?
Does he always sit where he can see the door?
I’m the girl on the bridge with the bag full of money
I’m the girl at the stick of the black helicopter
And I’m looking for a man of action.
