what if you never lose what you had lost? or maybe you never get what you had gotten? will everything still be the same?miss tan finally said something which i think is quite meaningful today. she told us a story. (maybe she's just adopting mr lee's method of teaching us moral values through short stories.) but anyway, here goes:
once, there's this boy who cannot control his anger. his father told him that whenever he is angry, hammer a nail into the fence. so as days go by, the nails on the fence increased. but after some time, they begin to increase at a slower rate.finally, the boy stopped hammering in any nails. because he had learnt how to control his anger. he went to his dad and told him that. his dad praised him and asked him to take out the nails one by one from the fence. and so, that was what he did. and when he had finished removing the nails, his dad told him, "look at the fence. it doesn't look like what it is before. now, there're holes in it, holes you can't fill."
it's just as true in our lives. many times, many people do things out of anger, but they didn't know that whatever they did have hurt us. and when they apologize and all, the scar will still be there. just like the hole-ly fence, it's hard to fill up the holes. sorry may be the hardest word to say, but it doesn't guarentee the hurt can be erased.
sorry to those people i've hurt. sincere apologies.
to think about it, i've been rather slack these few days. wake up, bathe, go school. end school, come home, watch vcd, eat, sleep. that's what i do everyday. notice, there's no homework, revision blah blah.but, then again, i should start working hard now before i regret.
he's moved on. i should as well. wake up constance. don't bother so much already. just close your eyes and go to school. pretend you didn't see anything. or just pretend you didn't hear or read anything.
ya.right. easier said than done.
but what to do? it's not the same anymore. so many things have changed. so fast, i can hardly react to it.
oh well.goodbye internet. hello vcds.
