HERO
There`s a hero if you look inside your heart
You don`t have to be afraid of what you are
There`s an answer if you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fear aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And then you will finally see the thruth
That a hero lies in you
It`s a long road when you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
You can find love if you search within your self
And the emptiness you felt will disappear
Lord knows dreams are hard to follow
But don`t let anyone tear them away
Hold on, there will be tomorrow
In time you will find the way

The King’s Disease
Many years ago there was a king who was very bad tempered. Everyone was afraid of him.
The king was bad tempered because he was often ill. He was often ill because he ate and
drank too much.
“I am always ill”, the king told his doctor. “Why can’t you cure me?” the doctor did not want
to tell the king the reason. He knew this would make the king very angry. “I give you the best
medicine, your majesty” he said “I do my best.”
“your medicine make me worse’, the king said. “You must cure me before the end of the
month or I shall put you in prison. You are trying to poison me.”
‘Perhaps your food is making you ill”, the doctor said. This was a polite way of saying, “You
eat too much.”
“Nonsense”, the king shouted. “My cook is the best cook in the world. No, I am ill because
you are a fool. You do not know how to cure me. I pay you to make me well, but what
happens? I have stomachache and headache everyday. Now go and study your books. Fine a
cure for my disease or…….”
“Yes, yes, yes Majesty.” The doctor said and went to his room. He made a lot of new
medicine but it did no cure the king.
At last, a few days before the end of the months, the doctor went into the forest. He wanted to
see a wise old monk and ask for his advice.
