This is a short piece of work i wrote while i was sick in the hospital. My life was not going well and so i was rather happy to get away and be there. Some may even say i brought the illness upon myself. While in bed one morning with nothing to do, i saw the light window curtains being blown by a wind. At that point, i saw myself as that curtain and vowed not to be so easily blown away by some unfortunate events in my life. View table of contents...

The Wind

The curtain is forced to go in the same direction the wind goes

Just like people are forced to go in the same direction their destiny goes.

If you replace the curtain with a denser one

It will be strong enough to resist the wind

Just like if you change the person

Or the person changes

The person will be strong enough to resist their destiny.
