Culture

While me driving him to school,
Younger Boy started a chat.

YB : Did I tell you about a story, dad?

I : A story?

YB : Yes.
The one I heard during school assembly.

I : Hm...which one?

YB : The one about Africa.

I : No, you didn't.

YB : OK.  It's like this.
A professor flied to Africa,
Visiting a tribe & studied its culture.

I : That's interesting.

YB : The professor gathered all children...
From the tribe in a woodland,
Then said who reached the distant tree first,
Would get a prize.
Do you know what happened?

I : No children took part in the race?

YB : No.  They all took part.

I : Really?

YB : Yes. They all did.
But they were all holding hands,
Walking at the same pace,
Reaching the tree at the same time.
And...

I : And?

YB : They all shared the prize!

C

I often remind our boys,
No point in getting a C grade,
If they can get a B grade.

Because one should try their best,
Should Constantly to improve, progress,
To become Better of Themselves.

I also remind our boys to be a C person :
Confident, Consistent, Calm and...
Above all, Caring.

So they've been giving back to Community,
Playing Classical & Contemporary piano,
To the elderly, Charity...

So, they're to play at the Seaton Town Hall,
Between 1830-1900 hrs on (Wed) 22 May,
Opening the Community Hospital's AGM.

Smell

After me giving him a hug,
Younger Boy started a chat.

YB : Do you know you smell, dad?

I : Oops...do I?  Bad smell?

YB : No. It's just...
You smell like tea and soap.

I : Oh...better than I thought.
Perhaps I drink too much tea....
And use too much soap.

YB : Hm...perhaps.

I : What does mum smell like?

YB : A bit warm...and a bit old.

I : Really?
'Warm' is a smell?

YB : Yep.

I : So, what do you smell like?

YB : Of course, you know.

I : Do I?

YB : Yes...I smell like...

I :A baby?

YB : No, not a baby.
But a child.

I : A child?

YB : Yes.
Because I'm the youngest in our family.

ABC

I always remind our boys,
What Mentality they must have,
What Skills they must possess.

At the same time,
I've also reminded them,
What they should NOT be.

NOT to be ABC.
A = Arrogant = You're gone.
Also = You're finished.

Because once they start to think,
They're the best,
They'll  start offending & self-destructing.

B = Blaming others.
Also = Bringing Disasters
Because not admitting own mistake is bad.

Blaming others for own mistake is worse.
So, more & bigger mistakes will strike those....
Fail to Admit & Learn from their own mistake.

C = Complacent.
Also = Unpleasant.
Because being self-satisfied invites dangers.

Why change when nothing ever went wrong?
Because things change so sudden these days,
One has to change before being forced to change.

Life is as simple as ABC - Always Be Calm
