afew days ago, i came across an article on the StraitTimes.. i cant rem which category it was under, but i can somewhat rem the content of the article. it was well-written & i cant agree more w it.

theres a phrase which i like particularly. it goes smth like "Deep in our hearts, we know that our Mums love us with all they have. But somehow, they have this unique ability which can bring out the worst in us".

the msg which the author is trying to convey is v simple...yet many of us overlooked this simple truth most of the time.

for the same question/comment asked/made, we can react so differently to different ppl.
Take for instance, if a fren commented "Your jeans is alittle too tight for you", we may accept the comment & perhaps buy a new pair of a more loose jeans. However, if parents were to remark the same comment, i guess some of us may snap back & yell at them "what do you know?! this is the IN-thing now k!"

more than often, we got irritated w our family members over the most minor (slightest) thing. to be truthful, i myself also behave like this at times. tts y i really agree w the article alot (haha). but hey, perhaps we shd make it a pt tt everytime when we feel like shouting back at our parents, we 1st take a deep breath.. hopefully tt'll help to cool ourselves down & hold back our temper! =)
