| | I haven't blogged for so long....I guess I just never had the chance to recently...but there is something I really want to share...yesterday I went to church...it's not that I've never been to a church before since I used to be forced to go there with my secondary school to listen to loadza boring stuff about Christmas etc etc... but yesterday was completely different...This is one of the things I heard yesterday...You plant a seed before you harvest it...very simple right????TOTALLL COMMON SENSE...but to be honest a lot of people don't actually realise this principle throughout their daily lives...and these people include myself...recently I've been very down...mum has been away alot...whether it bein illness or hong kong...so I had to take care of the rest of my family....being stressed over my resits, I still had to do every chore in the house...with not a single person helping me...I cried a lot....I wondered why my dad didn't care....I wondered why my brothers didn't help...I wondered how they can see my do everything and just sit their and not take any notice in me...am I just a maid in my family??? why do they take me for granted??? I cried and cried....I thought no one cared for me....no one loved me....Then I heard the principle of harvesting.... you plant before you harvest....this means you give before you recieve...you cannot harvest before you even plant the seed....when a seed is left on it's own, it will not grow...no matter how many years or centuries...it will still be just a seed....you must put the effort to plant the seed, water the seed, wait with patience and hope for reward....you cannot be a person that doesn't give love and then expect people to love you...you cannot expect people to treat you as a true friend if you don't try to treat them as a true friend first....Then I argued...I put 101% and more into my family...but why do I feel like a recieve very little...Then I realised, when you plant a lot of seeds, there's a chance that some plants may grow strong, some may be weak and need more time and patience, and some may just turn bad....Even when you put a lot of effort, there's always a chance that it will turn bad...but if you don't plant the seed in the first place, you will get nothing...I don't regret doing everything I can for my family...but I regret complaining about it....because deep down, I know they all truely care for me and love me...I just need to put more effort into loving them...I need to do more...My oldest brother just went to Hong Kong...I was so surprised at how much I cried...I never knew it would hit me so hard...I cried at the airport..I cried in the car...I cried at home...I'm crying while thinking about it now...I regret not spending enough time with him...I will plant more seeds and look after my seedsbecause I know I will be happier =)
