Hold It Tight

Hold It Tight by John B. BejoOne of the most wonderful experiences when I was a kid was kite flying. My first time was the most unforgettable too.

I was about 5 years when a friend of my brother let me hold the string.  Above was the 1 and 1/2 meter wide kite. It was so strong and beautiful. I was holding it with tiny hands when suddenly the wind blew stronger and I almost let it go. 

A moment later, I was silently crying. When my brother's friend noticed me, he asked, "Why are you crying? We have the kite!" And then I showed him my hands, there were long blister-like wounds on both. It felt like I held a smoldering iron. It happened that I loosely held the string, and when it pulled, the friction burnt my hands.

From then on, I learned an essential lesson in life, If you have a dream, hold it tight, or else it will burn you. The same is true with relationship, you need to believe in it and hold it tight or else it will burn you and lose it…
