think about it…
Sunday, February 26th, 2006i wasnt in the mood to do anything
i was kinda distracted
a condition without a reason
that left me in a deep melancholy
i cant explain the feelings
i really dont know what happened
so many things happened in this week
so many things i learnt this week
so many news i heard this week
so many messages that i received
so many messages that i sent out
so many missed calls i received
just so many things…..
what happened on tuesday
left a scar or mark in me
i felt so betrayed all of a sudden
i felt a knife behind me…
i felt a sharp pain in my heart
i really didnt expect that it would happened
but who am i to say anything?
it makes me realised that guys could be nuisance
its sad that they are easily distracted
its sad to see how they changed
its sad to see how they lose their dignity
its sad to see how they lose their principe…
so sorry to say that ‘you’ no longer have my respect
‘you’ no longer have my trust and believe
it was my fault to reveal the truth
but i didnt expect u would change after that…
it was the second mistake i did…
i will NEVER EVER tell ‘you’ anything anymore
its up to ‘you’ to understand the hint and points…
then,
the visit to Seri Mengasih Centre
a centre for the special children
TRULY leave an impact in me
though they may be slower
though they may be genius
though they may not score all As
though they may not have the same feelings
though they may not understand
though they may not know
BUT…
they are SPECIAL
each of them has their own uniqueness
we can NEVER understand everyone of them
they greeted us with smiles
they made us felt so warm and comfy
they took the initiative to shake our hands
they took the initiative to talk to us…
how could we separate them,
juz because of their disabilities?
does it really help them?
does it really motivate them?
does it really encourage them?
does it really make a difference?
we considered ourselves normal…
BUT
do we greet our families, frens and neighbours?
do we always smile in front of others?
are we friendly enough to talk to them?
are we EVER willing to help them?
most of us are so exam oriented
getting As meant everything
getting all As means ur great and superior
BUT…
whats the point when we dont even have basic qualities?
whats the point when we have bad attitude?
whats the point when we know nothing besides books…
These SPECIAL childrem make nice beautiful work
that i am so sure most of us could not do
from bookmarks, cardboxes and even wood craft…
they did their work with their fullest concentration
perfection became their priority…
neatness is a criteria…
they are TALENTED like us too
the most valueable lesson i learnt
was 2 lines uttered by a student…
"Do your work and find your things on your own.
Dont let the teacher do it for u."
they are learning to be independent
or maybe they are indeed independent
but look at ourselves
we depend on our mothers to locate our things
we depend on others to remind us this and that
we depend on others to do things for us
though we can do it ourselves
we are still being spoon fed by our teachers
all in all…
do we appreciate what others did for us?
are we contented with what we have?
why do we still demand for ‘unecessary gadgets’
when we are already so lucky?
why are we keep taking things for granted?
when will we EVER realise our selfishness?
when will we EVER realise our foolishness?
when will we EVER wake up and make a difference?
is it a DREAM that will NEVER come true?
or a HOPE for the new generation???
think about it…
