L.I.F.E

i love my mathematics 2 and macroeconomy's teacher the most.
they may not be the best teacher but they definitely score a place in my heart as a teacher..
both of them try their best to teach us whatever that they could to help us score in stpm exam.
not only that..sometimes they'll talk about their life and experiences when they were young and teach us about the
concept of life..
that is why i love them.
i love this kind of teacher.they'll tell us whats good and whats bad for us.
they not just share their knowledge but experiences in life too..

yesterday..my macroeconomic teacher, Pn.Boh said something which is very logic and it is so true. it is something like this, "why would u wanna angry with someone if he/she does not know that u're angry with him/her?u're making yourself suffering without them knowing while they are enjoying themselves."
she even told us last time how she used to be so stupid and silly when she angry with her bf but her bf doesn't know that she is angry with him and she make herself so suffer and got to keep all the anger in all her heart.that is very true!
thus, don't angry with someone who doesn't know u're angry with them.not worth it!!!
especially your bf!!

anyway i actually wanted to blog about the two so-called poems which i borrowed from Pn.Boh.
it is about a parents prayer and a child's plea.
suddenly, she read out loud about the parents prayer.then she asked me to read the second one to play a role of a child. =)
both the poems are very meaningful.i like it!!HERE IT IS~~

A PARENTS PRAYER

I gave you life,
But I can't live it for you.

I can teach you things,
But I can't make you learn.
I can give you direction,
But I can't always be there to lead you.

I can allow you freedom,
But I can't account for it.
I can teach you from right to wrong,
But I can't always decide for you.

I can buy you beautiful clothes,
But I can't make you lovely inside.
I can offer you advice,
But I can't accept it for you.

I can teach you to share,
But I can't make you unselfish.
I can teach you to respect,
But I can't force you to show honor.

I can advise you about drinking,
But I can't say no for you.
I can warn you about drugs,
But I can't prevent you from using them.

I can help you to set goals,
But I can't achieve them for you.
I can tell you about kindness,
But I can't force you to be gracious.

I can advise you about your friends,
But I can't choose them for you.
I can warn you about sin,
But I can't make your morals.

I can love you as a child,
But I can't place you with the Divine.
I can take you to the house of worship,
But I can't make you believe.

I can tell you how to live,
But I can't give you eternal life.

A CHILD'S PLEA

Give me all that I need but not all that I ask for.
That would be spoiling me.

Be firm with me.It makes me feel more secure.

Help me to form good habits.
I have to rely on you to detect them in the early stages.

Help me attain my full potential.

Correct me when I make mistakes but not in front of people, if you can help it.

Help me recognize and admit my mistakes without making me feel too guilty.

Teach me to face the consequences of my actions.
I sometimes need to learn the painful way.

Be patient with my complaints.
They only mean I need your love and attention.

Remind me of the things that I have to do but please don't nag.

Listen to me, though what I say may seem trivial to you, an adult.

Try to be consistent.
It develops my faith and trust in you.

My fears are very real to me.
I need your understanding and reassurance.

Please be sensitive to my changing needs in my process of growing up.

Recognize my need to explore and to learn.
It helps me grow.

next time i'll try my best to be a good mother......
