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 INSPIRING VIDEO THAT CAN TWIST YOUR BELIEF and FAITH for yourself

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.”

AMAZING HIDDEN BEACH ON MARIETAS ISLANDS IN MAYARIT, MEXECO

THIS WAS  SO AMAZING  WONDERFUL
Amazing Hidden Beach on Marietas Islands in Nayarit, Mexico

Protected from the intrusion of the world outside, the hidden beach of Marieta Islands, Puerto Vallarta is a world of its own. Located just a few miles off the coast of Mexico, close to Bandera bay, Marieta Islands are archipelagos that were formed as a result of volcanic activity. The islands have remained almost secluded ever since.

The water along the hidden beach Marieta Island, Puerto Vallarta is a crystal clear blue mass of pure bliss. Following winter rains, Puerto Vallarta weather remains pleasant and inviting

MEMORIES THAT WILL NEVER LAST

As i was setting down on my room it came to my mind the memories that never last about my younger sister .Who is born with hearth disease. When she was a baby as i remember i'm still at young of age the doctors already advice us that she will not stay live for a long period of time it only months or 1 yr.

We want her to stay on the hospital but she always cry seems she doesn't want the place. As her condition she is not allowed to cry for along period of time because she easily catches her breath.so the doctors advice to bring her home as the doctors say that her face changes its like shes so happy to home.

As day ,months , years pass we always say hope she will not. God hear our prayers and she lived for a long period of time until she reached the age of 12. With those pass years lots of memories happens , she take care good care of those daughter and son of our  brother and sister . Every time she wanted , she loves kids she always wanted to hug them and sing and dance with them.

I remember we have a very cute white dog this dog become her best friend as i said its like they understand each other. She even teach our dog how to dance. So every time they are playing or we have some guest she will always say Pungil come dance beside me ? Pungil is the name of our dog. Then our dog run where she is setting hug one another before our dog dance. Until now i'm still thinking how she did manage to do that.

When she went to school her teacher says shes so talented shes very good and art . And when her teacher ask her what is her dream at the age of 7 she said she want to be doctor. As she grow every time i go home i was looking at her shes very different . She is very responsible shes like so matured because every time she finished taking a bath she washed her clothes and let it dry . And fold them she wants all her things to be in order . Its like shes always ready to go .

There was one time since she cant walk that long so i have to carry her . It comes to my mind and asked her if so happen we don't know that you will say goodbye to us forever are you gonna show up on me always ? And she said yes. So i said hemmm then i will not carry you at all i said with a smile but of course i had no choice but to carry her every 5 minutes .

That was the last time i had some fun with her then i came to Singapore to work . When i am calling my mom always told me that she want to have that so i said ok. For the past month yes she sell those chips , candies etc. So she earn money the money that she earned from those she ask my mom to buy sugar coffee and dried salted fish so my mom says for what?

With out the idea of my mom every person who pass by or just set on our backyard she always asked them if they had coffee or they already eat. If they said no she just go to the kitchen and prepare them food. That's what she always do .

A week before she will finally say goodbye she put all her belongings in a box in put inside the wardrobe . We thought we are ready to this moment but it wasn't , those moment was the moment of sadness.

So the time she finally say goodbye all we have  hear  from those people who came to be with us that moment . that we don't even know who they are . We were wondering why and how they know my sister until they begun to tell the story .Words THANK YOU and GOODBYE to her. Shes like a well known person because we had so much guest in different ages.

One day when i was talking to my mom i ask her did she ever show up on you after the those past days cause my older sister she already did ? And for me i haven't see her on my dreams how is she now? My mom said don't worry . I asked again my mom . I know how my mom feel about it .( ohh dear my tears begun to fall ) and she said yes she already show up to me on my dream at first i don't recognize her because shes very different , she looks so pretty wearing pure white dress , with ribbons on her hair . So i was wondering who is she ?

As she came closer and closer where i am setting down she said “mama” and i said Jolyn and set on my lap. As we talk for a long period of time she said i have to go now mama becAUse all my friends are waiting for me. You don't have to worry about me cause my place is very deffirent from here . Its very beautiful lots of kids , food , wide play ground and beautiful flowers. And my mom said as she stand and walked forward from my mom then she begun to fly like an ANGEL

As my mom telling me the story about her i can't help my self but my tears are falling down. I miss her so much but then again im so happy because i knew shes in heaven and shes one of our ANGEL. OPPSS need to wipe my tears ....... but i was so amazed by her because she created her own MASTER PIECE and left a MEMORIES that will never LAST.
