Grow

One of the kid characteristic is their difficulties in expressing themselves, once they encountered a problem they will show us many emotions such as confusion, frustration, anger, despair, and sadness. They will throw tantrum to communicate their unspeakable words instead of using sentences to complain or explain. This is because children have their limitation in vocabulary. Therefore the process of growing up require brushing up our communication skills. I still learning on how to expressing my emotion in words, and I use this blogging platform to improve my communication skills.

My husband and I are a pair of serious people. It is my joy to annoy him by doing prank and utter silly things. My husband often said to me that "small things amused small mind" (he said it in a gentle manner of course 😍). Indeed, I love small and simple things so much, I always keep my distance from complicated items, expensive things and phony behaviour, I even avoid socializing and keep my circle so small. Per contra, in the society what so called 'grown up adults' are complex beings, I guess I still have to grow up each and every day, and built the way I think and carry myself and hopefully I can become an open sophisticated adult with the heart of a child. 

We currently live in a long peaceful era, the war we know and experience are the cyber war and the emotional war in the real housewives, love islands, and the bachelor. We have limited life experiences, and living a convenient yet shallow lives. The young generation nowadays are live comfortably and have not been exposed to many life events such as suffering and deaths, thanks to the decrease of poverty and the rise of middle class income people in the developed and developing countries, 

I also have had a comfortable upbringing, my parents were good provider and they were quite protective of their children. Because of this, I think some part of me are still live in my own bubble until now. And that's what attracted me to drama on TV and internet, all these binge watching is just to compensate all the dull days. I need to step up my game, be more responsible of myself by stop wasting time on pleasurable events and entertainments. I would make my days filled with small achievements. I need to get out of my comfort zone, find my sweet spot, and grow.

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

Entitlement

People say our young generation is entitled, it is a good topic to joke about for the stand-up comedians. Entitled is believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. I believe this is not owned by the young generation only, every generation has it, every one of us has it to some degree. This is a problem we have in society in any age, in any countries in this world. I remember when I was a kid, at night during the hot season our house was filled with mosquitos, and dengue fever are quite common in our country.  I can't remember whether I and my sister ever whined about it but I always remember the fact that my mother often stayed up late holding the insects killer racket just to defended us from the mosquitoes. However, My entitlement behaviour took the bad on me, I thought she ought to do that one because she is our mother, it's her duties to protect us. I did not really care how many hours she has spent at our room every night, or whethe...

Addiction

Addiction is the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance or activity. Addiction usually start with pain and end with pain. People will turn to addiction as an escape from their 'hard to deal with' current circumstances. Addiction have negative connotation but in my opinion addiction can be good and bad. But anything that not being done in moderation tends to bring more harm and good.  However, the dichotomy of bad and good, can we really be able to distinguish them? In my own opinion again there is no such things as true good and true bad, all good and all bad. It all depends on our own perceptions and our current states when it's happen. What is good now might not be good again tomorrow, the thing that is good now was not good yesterday. If we are battling with any addiction today, let's all of us be kind to ourselves. We should all acknowledge our addictions and bring them to the lights, but we shouldn't condemn them. We are what we are now b...
