Les enfants

Et une femme qui tenait un bébé contre son sein dit, Parlez-nous des Enfants.
Et il dit :
Vos enfants ne sont pas vos enfants.
Ils sont les fils et les filles de l'appel de la Vie à la Vie.
Ils viennent à travers vous mais non de vous.
Et bien qu'ils soient avec vous, ils ne sont pas à vous.
Vous pouvez leur donner votre amour, mais pas vos pensées.
Car ils ont leurs propres pensées.
Vous pouvez héberger leurs corps, mais pas leurs âmes.
Car leurs âmes résident dans la maison de demain que vous ne pouvez visiter, pas même dans vos rêves.
Vous pouvez vous efforcer d'être comme eux, mais ne cherchez pas à les faire à votre image.
Car la vie ne marche pas à reculons, ni ne s'attarde avec hier.
Vous êtes les arcs desquels vos enfants sont propulsés, tels des flèches vivantes.
L'Archer vise la cible sur le chemin de l'Infini, et Il vous tend de Sa puissance afin que Ses flèches volent vite et loin.
Que la tension que vous donnez par la main de l'Archer vise la joie.
Car de même qu'Il aime la flèche qui vole, Il aime également l'arc qui est stable.

Les enfants "Children" Poem by Gibran Khalil Gibran ( Libanese Poet)

verbos pronominais são os verbos conjugados com os pronomes oblíquos - os que mais usamos, são: me/se/nos; e esse pronome vai se referir ao mesmo sujeito na frase, podendo ser reflexivo ou recíproco: Os reflexivos é quando o próprio sujeito faz a ação: Olhar-se Eu me olho no espelho (você está olhando para você) Eu olho no espelho - sem o pronome, significa que você está olhando ao espelho, mas não está olhando para você; você pode olhar ao espelho do carro e não se olhar! Os Recíprocos é quando duas pessoas fazem a mesma ação ao mesmo tempo: Beijar-se Eles se beijaram na balada (duas pessoas beijaram uma a outra). Eles beijaram na balada (beijaram outras pessoas, não um com o outro). Alguns verbos são essencialmente pronominais…

"Life and business are like changing seasons.
I would like to share to my listeners
the most valuable lesson that I learned from Jim Rohn.
"Life and business are likechanging seasons. You cannot change
the seasons, but you can change yourself."
Learn to handle the winters. Use the summer when everyone is enjoying life to prepare for life's 
worst situations. Use spring and summer to prepare. Never be complacent.

"Always prepare for the winter season."- JIM ROHN
