do u believe in "Spare the rod and spoil the child"?

i totally believe in it as i was brought up in a really respectable family. at least i respect others as much as i hope ppl will do for the same to me. respectable not as in rich but not despise ure own actions.

yesterday, i spend a bomb on economical rice due to my blurness.

i had a 10 buck and a 50 buck in my wallet. i tot i took out a 10 but instead took out a 50. the auntie gave me a change of 47 bucks.
so happily i tot i earned. but in the end while standing there, i decide to give back 40bucks since i tot i gave 10bucks.

its not until i check my wallet during dinner that i found out i've left with the 10buck and not 50..

well i really felt shocked and sad after that. the only thing that comforted me is when i tink about how i did not try to "covet" that 40bucks and keep for my own as i tot i gave out a 10.

the most memorable thing my daddee told me during my primary school days is during a bus journey to church. my bus card didnt have anymore money in it. so i just sneak pass the bus driver and went to sit.

daddee caught me after that and ask whether i paid for the journey. i told him i didnt cos my card didnt have anymore value in it.

he told me very sternly that we should not be dishonest for this kind of little things. becos its this kind of little things that people survive and feed their family with. and they are earning an honest living.

so he gave me a dollar coin to pay for my trip.

and i've always noticed he always pay the 10-20cents requirement for using some of the toilets even when the attendant isnt there. which greatly makes me admire him alot becos i myself too, sometimes did not give.

i bet there are some parents which will tell the child to go shortcuts in life.

its this kind of little things that really affect a child's behavior in the future. magnificent or memorable things will forever hang on their head, be it good or bad.
