Wong thing to do..

Today I did something wrong. Quite wrong.

I will not go into details. But I just want to highlight one point.

Initial thoughts when dad scolded me, "Shit lah."
Refined and well thought-through thoughts, "I thank God for parents who SCOLD me and put me on the right track. They have taught me a word I have forgotten for a LONG TIME. Discipline. They have reminded me about CONTROL and RESPONSIBILITIES, and PRIORITIES. I thank God for parents who SCOLD ME to tell me that I am wrong. And that I need to change."

I thank God my dad didn't just say, "Come home soon then."

I thank God he came down and scolded me and then picked me back home. This means that I am being too ill-disciplined. If I wasn't reprimanded today, imagine how much more ill-disciplined could I get?

Thank you daddy God for giving me a pair of parents who can control me. I love them.


And I love you too. Do not feel condemned. People all make mistakes. Great people learn from them and apply them to the future. I love you (: sleep well.
