I see a mother giving birth to a new prophecy..
When he was inside the womb,he could remember the countless sleeps that he had in which he made uncountable dreams as well...
During adversity, he was able to ask fate numerous questions ..on the other hand he was too anxious to live to his expectations...
Well is really a deeper place he said to himself...
More deeper than that of the belle...
But since he made  beautiful dreams inside the womb of a mother's belle,he strongly believe that it will always lead to the achievement of this thought of humor...
Mother's deserve lots of reward because they first gave us a concept of dream,a comfortable sight for dreaming,a brave mind to grab the dream when you remember one of the dreams that  you had in full and amazing life while living the dream.....
Live your dream and live life at full because you are the only to witness a dream inside the small comfortable world.
