Tasted only and felt

I looked the grin in his eyes it's something I will never forget, the burglar or thieves we will never know what they wanted why they attacked but after they just left, dad layed on the floor in stain of blood. After moments has passed finally got help, but it meant I was going to be the head of the family until dad recovered, I remained there just gazing in blank remembering one day before the attack dad had promised to take us at the farm house on weekend. We had a farm house which had all kids of animals starting from birds, rabbits, ostrich, turkey, goats and cattle it was so lively everytime we went there.

Because dad was fond of agriculture he taught me some skills how to deal with farm animals and treating them plus herbal medicine, the situation continued to get out of control being the support for my young siblings had to be strong yet am also a kid I need someone I can lean on. I had to learn it the harder way but it didn't stop me from doing what I have to do, continued going to school as well as thinking about other ways we can handle the situation.

As they say where there is a loss, some people see profit because of what happened the other family members were busy exploiting our family business and assets, because among them our dad was the most successful one, people always admired him because of this smartness and integrity. They took the opportunity as he was sick bed to destroy everything us being kids we were helpless there was nothing we can do. By the time dad recovered we had already lost everything because he took long time in coma fighting for his life and some serious injuries on his back bone.

Seeing dad struggling with the situation to get back on top after recovery it somehow also affected us mentally, the only thing I could do is study hard. Through the whole process I changed become completely anti social at school even the music classes I used to enjoy they no longer mattered to me because I didn't want to do anything that requires gathering at school my safest place become the library where I could read about alot of interesting things like philosophy.

At times like this philosophy helped me improve my critical thinking and reasoning, reason is concerned with the grounds of determination of the will. My frequent visits at the library happened to be a boy who had a crush on me, he was smart good looking and from a very good family, even though love was something I wanted at first as time passes with the circles of life I couldn't afford to lose myself to someone else that would be a total disaster. Now I came to think of it when I asked mum how she used to manage everything in whatever situation she had to face and still remained calm and humbled, she just told me experience is the best teacher it's something you will have to face your self somehow to understand better.
