Reading Log for the month of November

Book Title: Daddy by Danielle Steel                                                  December 12,2011


Part I


1. Reflect - I am really amazed to Oliver who have faced the hardest part and the responsibilities of their children who was left by his wife Sarah. Even though it wasn't Oliver's choice to agree on Sarah's decision of letting her away because of her ambition. However, it hurts a lot to Oliver for him to cope with his troubled family. But at the end it surprised me a lot knowing everything is new and different to all of them and Oliver found the right girl for him.


2. Connect - I always asked to my self what kind of family I may build in the future. It was the same as Oliver that he as the father worked hard for his family. Actually, this novel reminds me when I was in High school. I have this friend of mine who lives with his father because her mother left them and went to Manila. Her mother doesn't want to be left alone in their house and works like a maid to them. It really triggers me a lot every time I saw her thinking with his family to be the same like what she used to.


3. Question - I wonder why Sarah left her family in fact  she is being spoiled by his husband Oliver? What if  Sarah accepted her responsibilities as a mother and wife could she  still bare with it? I also couldn't figure out why Oliver didn't left his children in trouble and find someone who can replace her wife soon as possible? I would find it hard also that because of Sarah's disappearance  it worsen          
the lives of her children especially to her oldest son Benjamin who became a teenage dad.


4. Predict - I halfway conclude if Sarah didn't leave Oliver it would not trigger their family in trouble. And if Sarah will come back soon they can still keep their family unbroken. I guess also that it was the best way of Sarah leaving Oliver without directly hurting the feeling of her family. And I also think that Oliver really loves his children that he didn't leave them. Then at the end Oliver made a right choice of choosing Charlotte  to become his wife; who loves Oliver more than her career as an actress.

Why should I return after everything that you put me through?/

why should I even make and effort after I did all that I could possibly do/

I realize now that this relationship was never meant to be/

because all this time I didn’t listen to my heart, for I was to blind to see…/

I hope one day you realize that everythig you wanted was everything you had/

and now that I’m not there for you…you never imagined that it could hurt this bad/

I will never understand why you said all the things that i never wanted to hear?/

being alone and without you WAS one of my greatest fears/

I hope one day you read this and realize that these are my true feelings/

that after what happened between us…your love and affection I will no longer be needing/

And hopefully one day you will embrace that this is not just how I feel../

but it is something true in my heart…and to me it has never been this close or this real/

You were a great girl full of potential and a unique heart/

but as of this day forward i believe that were better off apart/

So this is my final good-bye and my last farewell before I’m gone/

because i assure and swear to you that this man and this love is going to be moving on…/

OUR LOVE

Our love is torn by miles, not by choice.

Soon, soon, my darling, I’ll be coming home.

At night I play your body and your voice,

But soon the hands and cries will be your own.

I want to love you all the hours we’ve missed,

And do the things I’ve fantasized for you:

Kiss you all the places my mind’s kissed,

And put you everywhere I’ve wanted to.

My only fear’s desiring you so much

That dream will overwhelm reality;

Time, for both of us, must temper touch

So love can once again be slow and free.

My mind’s already half insane with pleasure;

Soon, soon my body will consume its treasure.

PAIN

It has many forms, some hurt worse than others

Some cause you to bleed, while others make you cry

Some make you want to die, or be dead, while

others just make you want to stay in bed

Pain, its like a bee stinging you in the face

Pain, its like someone sprayin you with mace

Pain, its like having your best friend die

Pain, its like biting into a hot piece of pie

Pain, its like a knife tearing your skin

Pain, its like not having any friends

Pain, its like having your heart ripped in two

Pain, its like not knowing what to do

Pain, is a common thing for me

Pain, it fills my life with sorrow and misery

Pain, it makes me want to cry everyday

Pain, it makes me feel the worst way

Pain, it drives my life and the things I do

Pain, is what I get for loving you…..
