A Woman and the Wolves

A long time ago, very few people lived in the New Territories. There were only a few villages. If
the people wanted to go from one village to another, they often had to pass through wild and
unsafe forest.
One day, a farmer’s young wife went to the next village to visit her own mother and brother. She
brought along her baby son. When it was time for her to leave, her brother said “ it is getting
dark. Let my son, Ah Tim go with you though the forest.”
So Ah Tim led the way and the young woman followed behind, carrying her baby. When they
were in the forest, suddenly they saw a group of wolves. They began to run to avoid the danger,
but Ah Tim kicked against a stone and fell down. At once the wolves caught him. The young
woman cried to the wolves, “ please eat my own son instead.” Then, she put her baby son on
the ground in front of the wolves and took her nephew away.
Everyone understood that this was because the woman was very good and kind. She had
offered her own son’s life to save her nephew.
They ran back to the house and called for help. All men in the village fetched thick sticks and
went back with her into the forest. When they got there, they saw something very strange.
Instead of eating the woman’s baby the wolves were playing with him.

NIGHTMARE
"Don't eat just before going to bed!" my mother used to tell me. "You might get a nightmare."
How right she was. I never believed her until it happened to me.
It was on a night when I felt hungry just as I was about to go to bed. So I made myself a peanut-
butter sandwich and a large cold glass of milk. After consuming them I went to bed.
Soon I drifted off into a troubled sleep. I dreamt that I was with a group of people looking for an
old woman. I was not sure why we were looking for her but we all seemed afraid of her.
Somehow we had to find her. So there I was, searching high and low for her in frightful places I
had never been before. Sometimes I seemed to be flying while at other times I seemed unable
to move. The whole atmosphere was one of fear, like a dreadful horror-movie in which I was a
victim.
After some searching I entered a darkened room and saw a figure sleeping on a bed. As I got
nearer the figure suddenly threw away the blanket, got up and stared at me. It was an ugly old
woman with shiny golden teeth. She raised her claw-like fingers and walked towards me.
I wanted to run but was unable to. I tried to scream but found that I could not. In horror I
struggled and struggled to get away from the frightful woman.
The next moment I gave a muffled yell and found myself panting on my bed. My goodness, what
a horrible nightmare it was! For a minute or so I lay on my bed not daring to close my eyes for
fear of falling asleep again and continuing the nightmare. Then I sat up on my bed until the
horrible feeling passed. From then on I never eat just before going to sleep.

I used to think that I could not go on

And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I’m leaning on the everlasting arms
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there’s nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me
