Hard

After Chess Club, I took my 2 boys home from school.

My Elder Boy could NOT hide his Excitement.

EB : Dad, I'd two achievements today.

I : Oh, that's good! What're they?

EB : 1st, I've moved up in Chess.
I'm now a Primary League Chess Player.

I :Which means?

EB : I could now play as an Individual Player.
(In addtition to play in a Team)

I : Really?

EB : Yes. 2nd is I'm now in the Top Maths Group.
Which is the "90-100 Mark" Group.

I : That's amusing.

EB : But still I do NOT have the Highest Maths Score.

I : Surprised!! I thought you're!

EB : No, it's another boy in another class.
But, I think I'm only 0.xx point behind him.

I : Well, that's a good news.
Because you now have a Target!

EB : Well, you can say it.

I : Let me remind you two things, my Good Boy.
1st, it's Hard for you to finally reach your Current Level.
You'd be very proud of yourself!
2nd, it's Even Harder to STAY at your Level!

God

The school has Religious Study.
So I had a conversation with my Younger Boy.

I : Do you believe in God?

YB : Yes.

I : Do you think God is a Chinese or an Aussie or...?

YB : God could exist in many form.

I : Have you ever seen God?

YB : No.

I : When you think of God, how do you feel?

YB : Sometimes I feel Angry.

I : Why?

YB : Because when I couldn't do something,
I thought it's God made me to.
So, I was Angry about God.
But, sometimes I feel Happy.

I : Why?

YB : Because sometimes I feel God gives me Confidence.

I : If you could see God, what would you ask God?

YB : I'd ask, "Why people CAN'T see you, God?"

(I remind him NOT God, but himself should be held responsible.
For his own Failure)
