Please teach your children that life is short.
In this video I am putting at the bottom you will see how heartbroken this man is, but he does realise that it would only be humane to help this dog of his to get rid of his pain.
We have to teach children that life is short but while we live we must really try to be the best people in the world that we can be.
Anyone can die at any time, and you do not want to live for the rest of your life thinking that you could have been a better person.
Children must realise that some animals do not live as long as people do.
Treat animals and humans all as if it the last time you will ever see them.
We had a family living two houses from us, and they had this lovely young son that just came back from the fighting on the South African border war.
He was so glad to be back, and they started fixing his motorbike as it had stood all the time he was gone.
We then lived just a little distance from the Free State border, and once he got it started he drove it slowly to just see if it would be back to the way it was before he left.
When he did not return his parents started worrying, and drove to the bridge to see if the bike broke down.
They found him where he had broken his neck as a Guinea fowl had flown up and hit his forehead.
He had broken his neck and died.
We do not always understand why things like this happen but that is life.
So make sure you are always nice to everyone especially the people you love as we never know what is going to happen even in the next hour.
Teach your children never to be sorry for what they have done to someone.
Being a good person is easier than being a nasty one.
This man in the video loved his dog so much, and it broke his heart but he did what was best for the dog.
This really touched me so much that I thought we must prepare children for things like this.
If we do not it could be worse for them. Remember we only have one life, and we must use it to the best of our ability.
Why because we all have to go one day and we want to go in peace.
If we did not do our best we might have a problem with our conscience, and that would really be sad.
Hope everyone is safe today, and have a wonderful day from me.
