Brief summary, reflection, and lessons learned from "My Thai Cat"

MY THAI CAT

BRIEF SUMMARY

Sii Ward is the protagonist of this narrative. Sii Ward is a Thai or Siamese cat with blue eyes and intriguing fur. Sii Sward was a hero during the 1925 drought, earning the title of Rain Queen. It rained for three days and nights, and it appeared as if the rain would never cease until the sky was clear of water. Their crops have been protected, but Sii Sward is unconcerned about the rain. She slept soundly for the entire three days. Following that, farmers and their families came to see her. They stroked her soft fur and left her dry fish and pork, her favorite foods. Sii Sward was hailed as a hero that year.

REFLECTION AND LESSONS LEARNED

    This narrative is about people's faith in their god. They employ their Nang Maaw rite to appease the queen of rain in exchange for water from the sky. Sii Ward is their heroine of choice. As a lesson, faith and prayer are the most crucial things to do whether you are down or even when you are not. Just like what I mostly do every time. I always prayed to God and call His name not because I am asking for something, but for the thanksgiving and praises, I offer to Him. And when we are in our deepest and darkest moments, we all cling to Him because we believed that He will provide. Everything we ask will always come on time. If it is His will to give us such, we will always have it, but sometimes, let us not expect that He will grant our desires right away. Our prayers may be on hold or He will redirect our desires. In relation to the story, the people keep on praying to have what they desire until they were given. They sacrifice and offer prayers and efforts for them to be heard. Overall, I have learned that:

• Everything happens for a reason and God is always in control.
• Faith can move mountains.
• Ask and you shall receive.
• Faith is not seeing is to believe, we need to believe and God will do wonders.
