A STORY OF APPRECIATION AND RESPECT

Add caption

One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company.

He passed the first interview, the director did the last interview, made the last decision.
The director discovered from the CV that the youth's academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research,
Never had a year when he did not score.

The director asked,
"Did you obtain any scholarships in school?"
The youth answered "none".

The director asked,
" Was your father who paid for your school fees?"
The youth answered,
"My father passed away when I was one year old, it was my mother who paid for my school fees.

The director asked,
" Where did your mother work?"
The youth answered,
"My mother worked as a clothes cleaner.
The director requested the youth to show his hands.
The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.

The director asked,
" Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?"
The youth answered,
"Never, my mother always wanted me to study and read more books.
Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.

The director said,
"I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother's hands, and then see me tomorrow morning.*

The youth felt that his chance of landing the job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange, happy but with mixed feelings, she showed her hands to the kid.

The youth cleaned his mother's hands slowly. His tear fell as he did that. It was the first time he noticed that his mother's hands were so wrinkled, and there were so many bruises in her hands. Some bruises were so painful that his mother shivered when they were cleaned with water.

This was the first time the youth realized that it was this pair of hands that washed the clothes everyday to enable him to pay the school fee. The bruises in the mother's hands were the price that the mother had to pay for his graduation, academic excellence and his future.

After finishing the cleaning of his mother's hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother.

That night, mother and son talked for a very long time.
Next morning, the youth went to the director's office.

The Director noticed the tears in the youth's eyes, asked:
" Can you tell me what have you done and learned yesterday in your house?"

The youth answered,
" I cleaned my mother's hand, and also finished cleaning all the remaining clothes'

The Director asked,
" please tell me your feelings."

The youth said,
Number 1,
I know now what is appreciation. Without my mother, there would not the successful me today.
Number 2,
By working together and helping my mother, only I now realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done.
Number 3,
I have come to appreciate the importance and value of family relationship.

The director said,
" This is what I am looking for to be my manager. I want to recruit a person who can appreciate the help of others, a person who knows the sufferings of others to get things done, and a person who would not put money as his only goal in life. You are hired.

Later on, this young person worked very hard, and received the respect of his subordinates. Every employee worked diligently and as a team. The company's performance improved tremendously.

A child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wanted, would develop "entitlement mentality"and would always put himself first. He would be ignorant of his parent's efforts.
When he starts work, he assumes that every person must listen to him, and when he becomes a manager, he would never know the sufferings of his employees and would always blame others.
For this kind of people, who may be good academically, may be successful for a while, but eventually would not feel sense of achievement.
He will grumble and be full of hatred and fight for more. If we are this kind of protective parents, are we really showing love or are we destroying the kid instead?*

You can let your kids live in a big house, give them a Driver & Car for going around, Eat  Good Meals, learn Piano, Watch a Big Screen TV. But when you are Cutting Grass, please let them experience it. After a Meal, let them Wash their Plates and Bowls together with their Brothers and Sisters. Tell them to Travel in Public Bus, It is not because you don't have Money for Car or to Hire a Maid, but it is because you want to Love them in a right way. You want them to understand, no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will Grow Grey, same as the Mother of that young person. The most important thing that your kids to  learn is how to appreciates the efforts and experiences the difficulties and learn the ability to work with others to get things done.. And respect others regardless of who they are.

A CHILDHOOD MEMORY (The moment i ask my self why?)

 

When i was young of age i was playing around near to the people who are talking to one another as a kid i never had any interest to listen to their topic,until i hear ed the name of my dad. As they go along i hear ed one phrase that really caught my attention to them .

*Maniwala ka pag sila lumaki at magdalaga lahat sila mag-aasawa maniwala kang may magtatapos sa kanila sa pagaaral*

Tahimik lang ako pero, nung narinig ko un sabi kos a sarili ko bakit kaya nila nasabi un? In our family we are all 6, 1 boy and 5 girls. Our eldest is a boy then my sister then I'm the 3^rd child. I never tell to anyone about this i keep it cause i was wondering WHY? The school year begin so i said to my self i must be on the top no matter what. I finished my grade 1 to 4 as first and second Honor to my place . So every end of the school year my daddy or mama always on the stage as i received my Honor , so from that moment i already creating a different story apart from their story. As i finished grade 4 my aunt take me to their place to accompany her so i continue my studies and graduated as Honor students and make the school popular because of what i contributed about sports and academics during the sport feast cause i won most of the academics and sports where i joined to compete to the different schools .

As i grow up i choose to be Sim independent . I don't want to bother my parents for my studies so i applied to a scholar for my secondary and i made it. Habang lumilipas ang mga taon minsan may mga problima din dumadating . Minsan gusto kung sumoko pero sa bawat attempt ko na sumoko bumabalik ang alaala na yan sa akin. Kaya sabi ko sa sarili i must go on no matter what. I did not finished college and i started to work cause i want to earn money for my studies but my earning goes to my younger sisters. Until the day i remembered during my high school period as we studying about the defirent continent that day i said to my self no matter what it takes i have to see or work to one of this country. Its because i want to show to them that i am not a QUITTER OR A LOOSER, but i want to show to them that i am a FIGHTER AND a WINNER... AT gusto ko rin nila marealize nila di lahat ng bunga ng isang puno ng mangga ay matamis.

At ayaw ko rin manalo sila against sa akin .

So i saved most of my money until the day i asked my aunt what are the requirements to go SINGAPORE since she is working here in SINGAPORE. So i begin to process my papers secretly and used my savings. I only tell to my family that i am going to work abroad when all my papers are done and just waiting my air ticket that my aunt fox to me. That's the only time they know that i am leaving . I told them not to tell others so the moment i bring home all my things from the place i'm working those group of people asked me if i am going to get married or stay in our house but i just replied them with a smile.

They dint have any idea after 2 months that they hear ed that my younger sister will going to withdraw money from me. And they said how did she.????? I did not finished college sa pinas but i managed to study here in Singapore. Ang yes thanks God i manage to send my younger sister to university as i am also studying here at Singapore, hemmm multi tasking jeje

If  you were me how will you response on it? How  will you face those obstacles in your life ? Are you going to do the same as i did or maybe you will have a better idea ?

Yes people may come along in our life to teach us to be strong.To motivate us . To challenge us, how far we can go and face those challenges that we will be in counter in our daily life. But always remember no matter who they are. You are always the one to Design your Destiny. What you want on your life your success will depend on you not from others.

Plan it work for it ,sometimes we fail but what matters most every time we fail we will learn something rise up and don't give up in believing your self . Success don't come on an easy way you have to work for it. Everything has a process. Don't be afraid, to try new things just keep on trying until you will fulfill and turn your dreams into reality. “Cause Every failures brings with it the seed of an equivalent called.....S.U.C.C.E.S.”
