I was 'officially' a Mother after delivering my girl, Alexis, on 30th Sept 2009.
Whether or not, the option to deliver your baby with or without epidural;
Whether or not, the choice to stay in 4-bedded, 2-bedded or 1-bedded;
All of the 'unnecessary' worries were so uncalled for ~ after I cuddled her close to me the next minute she enters this world to me ~ nothing more matters than her health and safety.
The first time when I held her close;
The first time when she latched on to my breast;
That feeling is so special that only me and her share together.
The minute when she enters the world;
Her first cry ~ I believe, created that amazing sense of responsibility for Daddy (Aaron).
This is our child whom both of us have been patiently waiting for 9months.
Today is 24th November; 1 month and 25days after Alexis's delivery.
I have been taking care of her, day and night, ensuring that she has enough feeds, that overall she is well and happy.
It was only after becoming a Mother myself, I then understand;
The joy I had brought to my parents ~ when I am good;
And the pain I had brought upon them ~ when I rebelled.
It was only after becoming a Mother myself; I then understand;
It just take that little effort from me to bring a smile upon them,
It just take a little of my time (to be with them), to bring them happiness,
It just require that little bit of patience from me, to give them security,
If only I had understand this earlier...
If only I had a chance to say 'Sorry' to my mom, whom I have brought her joy, as well as hurt.
Life is so unpredictable, we never know what comes next.
All I asked for is good health and safety for my daughter, Alexis.
No matter how old she is, she will still be my child...

All of us wish and plan for our future;
For a better tomorrow, in terms of luxury, in terms of health.
Yet many times, our plans may not flow the way we have planned.
We may have to sacrifice our plans;
With unexpected events such as the lost of a family member or events beyond our control.
We count ourselves 'fortunate' when people around us are supportive;
And 'unfortunate' when we have no one to turn to - when one is in need.
The only way to console ourselves is perhaps to 'be glad that we still get to wake up this morning to see the light - light of HOPE'.
When there is HOPE, life continues.
It is in our own hands, to turn every 'unfortunate', a 'fortunate' ending;
It is in our own hands, to make every sad day, a happy day.
Even if the chances are down to a 1% ;
This 1% is still better than a 0%.
Never give up, never lose heart;
When there is HOPE, there is LIFE.
"When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile but you have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit -
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver line of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are;
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit."

Education in its broadest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character, or physical ability of an individual. In its technical sense education is the process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills and values from one generation to another through institutions ~ extracted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Training refers to the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and competencies as a result of the teaching of vocational or practical skills and knowledge that relate to specific useful competencies. It forms the core of apprenticeships and provides the backbone of content at institutes of technology ~ extracted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Today, much emphasis has been put into training our labour workforce so as to ensure that we keep up with upcoming technologies. We also have been encouraged to upgrade our skills every now and then, so that we keep up with our ever-changing society. It is a fact that learning is an on-going process which never shall ceased in life; from the minute we enter this world till the day we depart.
However, an individual who is equipped with various skills and knowledge, yet without a 'good' character, will still be considered an empty shell.
With so many various courses in the current market, our people have indeed acquired much knowledge and skills. BUT take a look at our daily newspapers articles: more commuters are caught eating/drinking in trains, cheating cases/misusing of company funds committed by professionals, rising cases in sex engagement with the underage, elderly in homes neglected by family members, etc etc.; all these committed by our so-called knowledgeable people.
Is there any use to put so much emphasis in training when one lacks the basic sense in humanity; when one choose not to behave during times when they know they are not being judged; when one basically have no EQ or perhaps is unable even to create harmony within his family, when one doesn't bother how another feel etc..
It is important that a mind receives the basic (life) education before any other training is provided. As when a mind is physically and mentally 'weak', that is when aspiration turns to greed, and when greed turns to crimes.
