in the midst of mourning for the loss of young lives, the fracture of families in the recent calamities in Mynmmar and Sichuan, here and I am, at the same time, reminiscing the times i have with the year 4s at Kota Tinggi for the level camp, esp with beloved class 4B, which i have the privilleged to be a teacher mentor.
And as we complained abt the lack of good toilet facilities, the oily food, the mosquitos and leeches, debating whether the challenges and expeditions were adventurous enough to push our peeps out of their comfort zones, there were lives (many might not even have the chance to understand what happened) that were no longer be able to breathe or see their loved ones.
Life is a paradox.
So, let's cherish our loved ones, our dear friends, our parents and relatives, our teachers and peers, our CCA mates, our classmates;
enemies are temporary but friends are forever;
focus not on the little misdeeds, misunderstandings and miscommunications between one another;
learn to forgive and look at the positive side of things and people around;
deep within us, there are goodness in all of us.
Live your life, live your dreams to the fullest
btw, Dunmanians, the school and some of your peers will be making a donation drive for victims of both Mynmmar and Sichuan calamities, do show your support for them by donating, also encourage your parents to do so... amount is not the key, it must come from your heart.
Do it with a heart.
