My Tree of Friends

The tree of the friends ,by Jorge Luis Borges.----------------- "Persons exist in our lives that make us happy for the simple chance to have crossed in our way. Some of them cross the way to our side, seeing many lunas to happen(pass),others that we see rarely between(among) a step and other one. We are called them all friends and there are many classes of them. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maybe every leaf of a tree characterizes one of our friends. The first one that it(he,she) is born of the outbreak is our friend dad and our friend mom, who shows us what is the life. Later the friends come brothers, with whom we divide our space in order that they could bloom as us. We happen(pass) to know to the whole family of leaves whom we respect and wish the good. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Then, the destiny us presents to other friends, which we did not know that they would be going to cross in our way. Many of them are named by us friends of the soul, of heart. They are sincere, are real. They know when we are not feel well, they know what makes us happy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And sometimes one of these friends of the soul explodes in our heart and then he is called a friend in love. This it(he,she) gives sheen to our eyes, music to our lips, jumps to our feet. Mas also is of those friends in a time, maybe a few vacations or a few days or a few hours. They are accustomed to place many smiles in our face, during the time that we are nearby. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Speaking closely, we cannot forget distant friends, those that are in the top of the branches and that when the wind blows always appear between(among) a leaf and other one. The time happens(passes), the summer goes away, the autumn comes closer and we lose some of our leaves, they are born some in another summer and remain others for many stations. But what makes us happier is that those who fell down continue nearby, feeding our root with happiness. They are recollections of wonderful moments of when they crossed in our way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I wish you, leaf of my tree, peace, love, health, luck and prosperity. Simply because every person who happens(passes) in our life is only(unique). Always it(he,she) stops a bit of yes and removes a bit of us. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Always will stay something inside of me from you,and my prayer is that something from me will stay in you... This one is the major responsibility of our life and the evident proof that two souls are not accidentally(casually). " To all my friends with LOVE...LET YOU STAY ALWAYS TRUE TO YOURSELVES,IF YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELVES NO ONE CAN TAKE THIS AWAY FROM YOU.....P.S: I translate this text with a translator on line,so there be maybe few mistakes..I tried to correct few that I found,according to the Hebrew translation that I read...So if there are mistakes,so sorry...Copyrights (c)Nira Dabush Written originally in Spanish dedicated to all my AW friends.To spanish speakers here's a link to this song page,recommended highly to read it in Spanish------------ http://ar.geocities.com/hromina2/arbolamigos.html
