Those who live in the past limit their future

"Those who live in the past limit their future."

Living in the past can be one of the biggest inhibitors in a person's life to seeing the things that their future will have to offer. In order to achieve the brightest future possible we must resist trying to light up the darkness that is our past. Don't let your past mistakes, and past regrets stop you from becoming the person that you want to become. 

Instead let your past be the building blocks of which you build the castle that is your future. In order to see the doors that are opening up before us, we must be willing to take our focus from the doors that have closed behind us. Change is never easy, and we shouldn't expect it to be. We just have to be mindful that instead of fighting hard to hold on to what was, we must instead fight hard to let go.

Good or bad news?

Is it good news or bad news? I wonder. I glad that our Minister took seriously about our posting. I hope this matter will be settle as soon as possible. Right now, only two things still in my mind that is SPP's interview and posting.

Getting bored. Nothing to do at home. One question: Am I ready to go to school and teach? Seriously, I'm not ready and not well-prepared in term of physical and mental. Suddenly, something come out and where will I be posted? Questions keeps on coming and I don't really know how to answer it.

Things getting complicated. It's life after all. Just go with the flow and you will be okay. Do you think so? Just wait and see.

Love and sacrifice

"If you really like someone, there's no such thing as not having enough time for them."

In any and all relationships that we have in which we care for another person and have some kind of commitment to this person, we have to be willing to sacrifice. Yes sometimes we must give things that we may not always want to give away, and included in this is our time. Time is very important because it is something that once gone will never be given back, but is necessary to give away to people we love in order to best strengthen the bond that we have with them.

Making the time out of our busy days to spend with those that we love is probably the best way to show someone that we care. Life is more about how present you are in somebody else's instead of how much material wealth that you are able or desire to give them. Instead of your relationships being about what you can spend on presents to your loved ones, make it about what you can spend in time with your loved ones, your presence.

Helpless Love

Once upon a time all feelings and emotions went to a coastal island for a vacation. According to their nature, each was having a good time. Suddenly, a warning of an impending storm was announced and everyone was advised to evacuate the island.

The announcement caused sudden panic. All rushed to their boats. Even damaged boats were quickly repaired and commissioned for duty.

Yet, Love did not wish to flee quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realised it was time to leave. Alas, there were no boats to spare. Love looked around with hope.

Just then Prosperity passed by in a luxurious boat. Love shouted, “Prosperity, could you please take me in your boat?”

“No,” replied Prosperity, “my boat is full of precious possessions, gold and silver. There is no place for you.”

A little later Vanity came by in a beautiful boat. Again Love shouted, “Could you help me, Vanity? I am stranded and need a lift. Please take me with you.”

Vanity responded haughtily, “No, I cannot take you with me. My boat will get soiled with your muddy feet.”

Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was to no avail. “No, I cannot take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.”

When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it did not look around, hardly concerned about anyone.

Love was growing restless and dejected. Just then somebody called out, “Come Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so magnanimous, but jumped on to the boat, greatly relieved that she would reach a safe place.

On getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. Puzzled, Love inquired, “Knowledge, do you know who so generously gave me a lift just when no one else wished to help?”

Knowledge smiled, “Oh, that was Time.”

“And why would Time stop to pick me and take me to safety?” Love wondered.

Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and replied, “Because only Time knows your true greatness and what you are capable of. Only Love can bring peace and great happiness in this world.”

The important message is that when we are prosperous, we overlook love. When we feel important, we forget love. Even in happiness and sorrow we forget love. Only with time do we realize the importance of love. Why wait that long? Why not make love a part of your life today?

Just let go

"Stop trying to control everything and just let go."

An important lesson that we all must learn in our lives is that despite all of the plans, despite all of the goals, and despite all of the direction that we try to put into our lives, sometimes life has a way of just taking us into its own direction. Not everything that we can do in life can be controlled and we have to learn to be able to let go in order to be able to free ourselves us from the weight of the past and to be able to fly in the future.

Let go after that you have done all you can, let go of the failures and mistakes that you have made. Don't forget them, and instead make your present and future better by learning from them. Be humble and secure knowing that there are things in your life that you can't change, but there are places that you will go, and doors that will open for you if you continue to live life being as great a person as you possibly can.

Dear Santa

Dear Santa, I'm older
But, still believe in you
(At least, I believe in
The things you try, to do).

Maybe, I can't ask for
A Tonka, or, a train.
(But, if you'd bring one of them
You know, I won't complain).

But, what I really wish for
Is a special present
Love that can't be "returned"
Once it has been sent.

Everybody needs a little
And some, need a lot
But, if you get a tiny bit
You still know what you got.

So Santa, drop a little
Under each Christmas tree
Then, all will get a present
From what it's 'posed to be.

And if there is no tree
For the alone, and poor
When you get, to their place
Just, drop, a little more.

by Del "Abe" Jones

P/S: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Waiting for love

"Right now someone you haven't met is out there wondering what it would be like to meet someone like you."

Finding love is a combination of many things, sometimes it is caused by random circumstance, and sometimes it is a product of a longtime friendship between two individuals. Just know that if you are looking for love chances are there is someone out there who is very compatible with you that is looking for love as well. In order to best pursue love, one should be willing to put in the effort to find it.

Doing things that allow for you to be in social situations that will help you to meet people is probably one of the most efficient tasks that you can do in order to most effectively you obtain a love interest. Never give up on love, though at times we may think that we will never find love, if we just keep a positive attitude and keep our eyes and hearts open, love will find us.

I'm waiting for you, my love.
I'm counting the minutes to see you again.

Your presence is the poetry of my days.

Your voice is the sweetest music I can hear.

I love you.

Things change and friends leave

"Things change, friends leave and life doesn't stop for anybody."

The crazy thing about life is that though we make plans of the future, even plans that may sometimes include people in our lives in which we may really care about at the moment; there are many things in our lives that we simply cannot plan for. One important fact of life is that no matter what we do, sometimes things just change. Sometimes the people that we once cared so much for will become the people that we can no longer be around, and sometimes the friends that we think will be in our lives forever somehow leave out of our lives before we can ever get a good chance to say goodbye.

We must all remember that life isn't going to stop just because our plans may fall through, and just because we are heartbroken over someone leaving out of our lives. We must be able to pick up the pieces that our life shatters into sometimes, do our best to hold things together, and continue working hard towards the goals and dreams that we have set in our minds and hearts. Even though things change, and even though friends leave, we have to realize that life doesn't stop for anybody, and to never stop moving forward.

British say, British mean and we understand

 

 

Differences between what the British say, what they actually mean and what the "non-British" understand. With the greatest of respect Adam, I love the notion that the British have a secret language that is witty.

 

It´s very funny but if you want to teach the differences among the students it could be a bit complicated. English is fun actually.

Some people feel the rain, others just get wet

"Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet."

A wise man once said that life is not about those who learn how to cope with the rainy days in their lives, but is instead about how people are willing to learn how to dance in the rain. Life is about learning to feel the rain, learning how to make what many may view in a negative light in a positive manner. In order to do this we have to train our minds to think as positively as possible.

We have to be able to take the challenges that life throws at us and turn them into steps in order to best conquer our futures. We have to be willing to not only get wet from going and working hard in our lives, but we must also learn how to enjoy the feelings of being challenged in our lives. Don't just get wet; enjoy the times in which you are challenged in life, so that you may better appreciate the times when life is peaceful.

 

 

Through the days ahead
I think of days before
You made me hope for something better

And made me reach for something more

 

Life is like a book

"Our life is one open book full of pages. We laugh, we cry, we smile, we stumble, we stand, we fall, and we succeed. Every chapter defines who we really are."

If we think long and hard about it, our life is very similar to a book. As each page progresses, so does time, and as each page progresses we live through different emotions, actions, and situations. As we pass through every day of our lives we go up and we go down, we smile, we laugh, we cry, we fail, we are victorious, we falter, we listen, we speak, we understand, and we seek wisdom.

What will your book of life say about you overall in the end? Will someone want to read your book? Will your life be interesting? Or will it be full of pages that don't really mean much at all. In order to present our best book/life to the world we must try to build our character as much as possible, and we must remember that we are here to do great things, we are here to change the generation by either changing the world abruptly, or by inspiring the soul that will change the world abruptly.

 

 

LIFE is like a Book

Each day a new page with adventures to experience,
lessons to learn and good deeds to replicate.
Have A COLORFUL PAGE Everyday.

It is the little things that make a big difference

There was a man taking a morning walk at or the beach. He saw that along with the morning tide came hundreds of starfish and when the tide receded, they were left behind and with the morning sun rays, they would die. The tide was fresh and the starfish were alive. The man took a few steps, picked one and threw it into the water. He did that repeatedly. Right behind him there was another person who couldn’t understand what this man was doing. He caught up with him and asked, “What are you doing? There are hundreds of starfish. How many can you help? What difference does it make?” This man did not reply, took two more steps, picked up another one, threw it into the water, and said, “It makes a difference to this one.”

What difference are we making? Big or small, it does not matter. If everyone made a small difference, we’d end up with a big difference, wouldn’t we?

I just thought about having more than 1 wish and all I came up with was ‘O wish i could change the world and make a difference’..then I had the ‘but how?’ moment… then it withered away... guess that's why we never get to change anything.We think then let wither.

Forget the risk, take the fall

"Forget the risk and take the fall, if its what you want, then it's worth it all."

We must quickly learn is that we must take risks. In order to live the greatest possible life we can live we must be willing to forget the failure we may experience, and to try to work towards a goal despite their being that chance. Sometimes we have to be willing to risk the unusual, to get away from the ordinary results from doing the same things again and again.

Every opportunity that we take in life has some sort of risk involved, and most times the biggest opportunities are the biggest risks to take. It is better to risk starving to death, than to give up and surrender to living life as ordinary as possible in order to avoid taking risks. In order to be fulfilled and liberated a person must be willing to embarrass their self; be willing to dare to be great risk. 

 

 

Never judge anyone

 

 

A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy’s father going and coming in the hall waiting for the doctor. Once seeing him, the dad yelled:

“Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son’s life is in danger? Don’t you have the sense of responsibility?”

The doctor smiled and said:

“I am sorry, I wasn’t in the hospital and I came the fastest I could after receiving the call...  And now, I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work”

“Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do??” said the father angrily

The doctor smiled again and replied: “I will say what Job said in the Holy Book “From dust we came and to dust we return, blessed be the name of God”. Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go and intercede for your son, we will do our best by God’s grace”

“Giving advice when we’re not concerned is so easy” Murmured the father.

The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy,
“Thank goodness!, your son is saved!” And without waiting for the father’s reply he carried on his way running. “If you have any question, ask the nurse!!”

“Why is he so arrogant? He couldn’t wait some minutes so that I ask about my son’s state” Commented the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.

The nurse answered, tears coming down her face: “His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son’s surgery. And now that he saved your son’s life, he left running to finish his son’s burial.”

Never judge anyone because you never know how their life is & what they’re going through, think about this moment.

Into each life some rain must fall

"Into each life some rain must fall."

During each person's life are times in which we experience trials, in which there seems there will never be sun again, and times where the rain is pouring down so hard that we can barely see life for what it is two feet in front of us. In every person's life rain must fall, for if there was never any rain, we would never be able to appreciate the sunshine.

If there was never any pain in life, we would never be able to appreciate the fruits of our hard labor, the fruits of our sacrifice, and emotions and feelings such as love, happiness, and joy. So take time to think about the fact that though you may be going through some difficulties at the moment, it is only so that you will be able to appreciate your life in the times that are great. It is in times of difficulty that we are made stronger, and that we are made the best people we can possibly become.

Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is falling in mine
Into each heart some tears must fall
But some day the sun will shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their hearts
But when I think of you another shower starts

Reasons why women fall in love with older men

If you are a man and you are over 35 years old, if you are attracted to younger women, but you‘re afraid to be rejected or not taken seriously, you’ll find the real thing in this article on the subject.

Let the state an irrefutable fact: most women over 25 and single are already disappointed by men of their age.

And their biggest problem is finding a man to their needs.

Here’s another fact: in most cases men reach adulthood after the age of 30 years.

These women believe that men older than their hearts the way younger men have done to break, they believe that an older man, the dedication and commitment to long-term relationships have been necessary.

Age shows maturity and decision-making power.

Many people believe that couples of the same age do not respect each other.

Younger women, on the other hand, enjoy it, someone they care about and are attracted to an older person services, economic stability and emotional maturity.

Make sure that similar life views and goals, share despite their age difference.

Do you both appreciate each other’s friends? Share the same principles when it comes to family?

Thus, an age difference of 7 to 15 years can lead to a really good relationship if both partners are willing. That’s because we do not choose who we fall in love with it, it just happened.

Moving on in life

"Someday, we'll forget the hurt, the reason we cried and who caused us pain. We will finally realize that the secret of being free is not revenge, but letting things unfold in their own way and own time. After all, what matters is not the first, but the last chapter of our life which shows how well we ran the race. So smile, laugh, forgive, believe and love all over again."

Experiencing pain from a recent break-up? It is important to know that times like these are some of the hardest and most trying times in a person's life. Yes it hurts to wake up sometimes, it hurts to know that someone that we gave so much of ourselves to is just gone from our lives, and we may cry and grieve to let as much of the pain out as we can.

There is a time to grieve, just as there is a time to heal. Seeking revenge isn't a way to allow your heart to heal, seeking revenge only makes a hurting heart hurt more in the long run, and doesn't help a persons heart build, but instead, tears it down even more.

Instead a person must realize that in order to get better, he or she must make an effort to, and also that just because you may be experiencing these feelings of severity right now, if you can withstand them and learn from them, you will soon be able to reach heights that you never imagined that you could reach.

 

I know that life keeps moving on and on
I know I'll never love this way again
But in my heart I know I must be strong
And as long that I'm alive
I can make if I
Just remember life keeps moving on

Kisah di sebalik Mimpian Jadi Resort

The Tuaran town is located in the West Coast Division of Sabah; the most famous landmark of this town would be the nine-storey Chinese pagoda. The town also serves as a good stopover town for travelers from the northern towns (Kudat, Kota Marudu, Kota Belud and Tenghilan) to the state capital of Kota Kinabalu.

Mount Kinabalu from resort

Need a place for a vacation? Faraway from annoying technologies? I know one place that might be your interest. Let me introduce you to my guide. Before that enjoy the pictures.

Birds everywhere

Road to the resort

It's me. Just me. I'm your guide for today. Hello readers. Care to visit to my place? A resort in Sabah with three Moai-like statues as its trademark. Where is it?

Built near a sandy white beach, Mimpian Jadi Resort formerly known as Kampung Resort and Club Sabah is in Tuaran, about 1 hour drive via Tuaran new road from Kota Kinabalu.

This long beach is only 200 meters in front the resort. A nice grass patch seperate between the resort and the beach.

The place is quite, away from city noises, enjoying scenery. Everyone must like the beach and the sea waves.

For your information, a Cuvier’s Beaked Whale was found dead at this beach in 1997, which according to scientists, was the first time such a whale was found in Sabah. The whale skeleton is now in UMS's Marine Museum.

It is 14.1 feet (4.43m) skeleton of a Cuvier’s Beaked Whale.

New species discovered in Resort

"Looks like a cross between a crayfish and a lobster with characteristics of a prawn and crab. Experts in Sabah were stumped about the identity of this crustacean. One day in January 2006, Manager of this Mimpian Jadi Resort in Tuaran, noticed this creature crossing the road leading to his resort.

Never seen such creature in life, Christopher Chan approach the local news paper Daily Express for help. Picture was showed to staff in Fisheries Department but there are more than 500 species of crayfish in the world. Could this be one of the 500 or could it even be a new species?"

Private jetty provides a host of events such as a water village cruise, mangrove cruise, water bicycle, canoeing, fishing, crab catching, jet skis, banana boat and fish trawling. Other activities are horse riding, Malay blowpipe, lawn bowling, beach soccer, beach volleyball, batik painting, pottery making, beach bike, lawn croquet, shell digging, ping pong, etc.

Here, we had an enjoyable time dipping and splashing in the pool and enjoying sea view, the kids dipping in the pool and the parents/teachers gets intimated… Most of the pictures taken when we had a Year 6 Motivation camp.

That's all from me. Thanks for reading. Care to visit?

Someone to love

Finally

She came along

Broke the spell

And set me free

Pushed aside

What use to be

All the broken hearted man that once was me

I never gave it up

I always believe

When she's in my arms I know what I achieve

So hear my loneliness

I'm giving up on you

I don't need you anymore

I've found what I've been looking for

So hear my emptiness

I've got no room for you

I've finally found what I've been dreaming of

Someone to love

Hey

Cos I was lost

I was down and out

Until that day

I knew what my life was all about

Still wonder how

She came my way

She's the reason I'm smiling here today

So hear my loneliness

I'm giving up on you

I don't need you anymore

I've found what I been looking for

So hear my emptiness

I've got no room for you

I've finally found what I've been dreaming of

Someone to love

To hold

To be my inspiration

Someone to touch, to cherish for life

So hear my loneliness

I'm giving up on you

I don't need you anymore

I've found what I been looking for

So hear my emptiness

I've got no room for you

I've finally found what I've been dreaming of

Someone to love

Someone to love

Oh baby

So hear my emptiness

I've got no room for you

I've finally found what I've been dreaming of

I've finally found what I've been dreaming of

Someone to love

Someone to love

Learning to trust again

"It's hard to trust someone the second time around after they already gave you one reason not to trust them."

Surrendering your circumstances to Him and trust completely in the fact that He has everything in control and He will carry you. He loves you too much to harm your trust. Trust in the One who is wholly incapable of leaving you.

When we decide to trust someone after they were dishonest or disloyal to us the first time around, we are choosing to put our heart into someone's hands with whom we know is capable of hurting us again. With this being said, knowing that they may be able to hurt you again is not what should be focused on. Instead after a thorough reconciliation and grieving period we have to be willing to get past the past in order to grow the relationship.

Entering into a relationship with someone who has already hurt you may be harder for some, and easier for some, depending upon their tolerance for pain, and how forgiving of a heart they have, but make no mistake about it, it will definitely be an uphill battle. Just remember that your heart is special, and if someone wants to be in your life after hurting you once before then they need to earn this spot back into your life.

Fastest way to success

Father : I want you to marry a girl of my choice
Son : I will choose my own bride!
Father: But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter.

Son : Well, in that case… OK

Next Father approaches Bill Gates.
 

Father: I have a husband for your daughter.
Bill Gates: But my daughter is too young to marry!
Father: But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank.

Bill Gates: Ah, in that case… OK

Finally Father goes to see the president of the World Bank.
 

Father: I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president.

President: But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!

Father: But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law.

President: Ah, in that case… OK


This is how good business is done.

Believing in love

"It's okay to believe in love again."

Though many of us have experienced heartbreak in our lifetime, many of us tend to have problems allowing love in our lives once again for the fear that the love we might found again may just as easily be lost again. In order to believe in love again a person has to be willing to forgive their past, and not forget about it, but instead learn from both the mistakes and the successes of it as well.

A person must believe in their self, and a person must be willing to be able to put their trust in another person's heart once again. Saying these are the things that need to be done, versus doing these things is probably a much easier task, but if a person is willing to work hard at it, they may be able to accomplish a more fulfilling and more satisfying love than ever before.

I do believe in love. That's why I'm keep on waiting. Waiting without limit. Sometimes love hurts. But I keep holding on and love is a constant journey to what others need. It must be attentive, caring and open, both to what others say and to what others cannot say.

Tomorrow may never come

"Live for today, because yesterday is over and tomorrow may never come."

Living for today is one of the most important life lessons that we must all be able to understand in order to make it in our lives. In order to live for today we have to be willing to not worry about the failures of yesterday, we must be willing to let go of the mistakes we made, and the people who are no longer a part of our lives presently. We must not commit the same mistakes that we made in our pasts and we must learn from the failures of it, so that we may be more victorious throughout our lifetime.

Living for today requires us to take great interest, and great care in every single thing that we do on a daily basis. Experiencing as much as life as we possibly can will allow us to live our days out to the fullest extent, because we never know if tomorrow will ever come.

Wordless Wednesday #19

A pencil and an eraser

Pencil: I'm sorry.

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry cause you get hurt because of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one, I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.

I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They're always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way... they get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.
 

All my life, I've been the pencil. And it pains me to see the eraser that is my parents getting smaller and smaller each day. For I know that one day, all that I'm left with would be eraser shavings and memories of what I used to have...

“We never know the love of our parents for us till we have become parents.”

Telling someone you love them

"Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them."

Make sure they also want to help you as much as you enjoy helping them. It's a two way street. Love to the fullest on your part and if it is not returned - sadly but strongly move on. God is with you. Your never alone and you deserve better. 

 

Even though it is a hard thing to think about all day everyday, we must make use of all of our time here on earth so that we can live the best possible life that we could have without having any regret by the end of it. Life is too short, and tomorrow is never promised to any of us. So take every opportunity that you can in order to tell the people in your lives that you care about them.

There will be many moments when you can tell someone that you love how they make you feel, and how you feel about them, so take advantage of them while you can. Spend your time chasing your dreams, with the people who want you to capture them, and who will help you to capture them as well. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them, and live your life openly, and free.

Just take care of my eyes

There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her boyfriend.

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her and then she could see everything, including her boyfriend. Her boyfriend asked her, “now that you can see the world, will you marry me?”

The girl was shocked when she saw that her boyfriend was blind too, and refused to marry him. Her boyfriend walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to her saying:

“Just take care of my eyes dear.”

 

P/S: Very touching story. People should always remember where they came from and be thankful and compassionate to others.

Happiness is like a butterfly

"Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder."

Trying to catch happiness itself is sort of like trying to catch a butterfly. We may be able to catch it if we put our all into it and overwork ourselves but chances are, if we just live in peace, and do the other things in life that we are supposed to do, happiness will not be far from us, and will more than likely come to us. Life is really about doing the things that we are passionate about, doing the things that we love, with the people that we love.

We must be willing to take the time to get to know ourselves, and to get to know our own hearts in order to be able to know what parts of life will best suit us, and how that we should probably go about our lives. Happiness is the product of hard work, sacrifice, and reaching for your dreams, and truly without all of these components it is more than likely that happiness will not approach us, but will instead avoid us.

SPP Interview

Good morning. Happy Sunday. It's a lovely morning. Just woke up. It's been a few weeks doing nothing except for online, sleep and eat. Nearly forgot that I will attending for Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Pelajaran interview. Getting nervous, not prepared and empty mind. Totally zero. But already checked the things in need to bring for the interview.

Identity Card - Check

Birth Certificate - Check

SPM Result - Check

Surat Tawaran Institut Pendidikan Guru - Check
Practicum book - Check

All the things I need had been prepared. But for myself still empty. Starting from tomorrow, I need to study a bit. I don't want to be looked like an idiot in front of the interviewer. Today, I will spend my precious moment with my family. Good luck for myself and wish me luck.

How to behave with your parents when they became old?

There is a story about an 80 year old man who was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45 year old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow perched on their window sill.

The father asked his son, “What is this?”

The son replied, “It is a crow”.

After a few minutes, the father asked his son the 2nd time, “What is this?”

The son said “Father, I just told you, It’s a crow”.

After a little while, the old father again asked his son the 3rd time, "What is this?”
 

The son said with some irritation, “It’s a crow, a crow”.

A little after, the father again asked his son for the 4th time, “What is this?”
 

This time the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Can’t you understand this?”

A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.

When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary :-
 

“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again all 23 times”.

So..
 

If your parents attain old age, do not repulse them or look at them as a burden, but speak to them a gracious word, be obedient, humble and kind to them. Be considerate to your parents.

From today say this aloud:

 

"I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered their selfless love on me. They crossed all mountains and valleys without seeing the storm and heat to make me a person presentable in the society today".
