Kids love to call their father a super hero. But the real superhero i think is our mothers. Why? Not being a feminist here but have you ever thought the things that your mum has ever done, did or doing. For example double shifted mums. What are double shifted mums you asked. Double shifted mums are mums who has a permanent occupation and a house wife. So she does double work. During the day she works in a office, shop or etc and towards the night, a mother & wife.
What so super heroic about that? Well.. Being a wife, mother & a employee is no easy work. A mother rises up early to ensure the kids are well packed for school, washes the clothe, cooks breakfast & lunch and cleans the house (applicative to family without household servants). Following that is a 9-5 job at the office and after that would be back to being a mother & wife at home. Hence, the cleaning after the children & husband, cooking dinner, listening to the whims & pansy of the kids & making sure her spouse is having equal amount of attention & love.
Multitasking is not something fun nor easy to conduct. Giving equal attention is most mothers God given quality. I said most because I believe not all mothers do the same and those who has mothers who does not give quality attention would oppose to what I've said. I believe that a mother is a super hero because who better to give a child & a husband the most attention & love but your very own mother.
Not saying that dad's aren't as good as mum. Yes a dad works hard at work to provide food on the table, to give security and a strong foundation to a family. But have you ever seen a dad do housework? Coming back from work and cleaning up the house and cooking? Hanging the clothes up? Have you? (applicative to family with both working parents). Truly if you were to see. A father thinks that working in an office is enough hardwork there is and it is enough. His only other task when arrived home is to be present.
So there is some fathers who do become house husbands but what Im writing here is about fathers who are being house husbands and an employee. So what say you? Well if your dad is a multitasker as an employee and a house husband.. You should be proud because it's not something to see nor hear everyday. Maybe you should appreciate him because it is your luck. =)
As for your mum. Try appreciating her for the things she has tried doing, done or did for you.
This post was an inspiration out of an article I read for class. It is bias in some way but try to see it from a different point of view. =D
PS: I'm not such a great daughter myself but I try to help in most ways.

Thirst for knowledge
We thought we were special, we thought we had the best of the best, we thought we had the knowledge that every adult would gained later. We thought we were smart in choosing the right education. But we thought wrong!
We learned we were deceived by marketing stunts, we were robbed of our treasures ensuring we would be given the best but we only received part of the best. We were promised gold but were given plastic. What was given in the early stages taught us a lifetime of lessons & precautions. But the latter years was an unavoidable stint of hopelessness. There werent too many choices so we had to stick with what we started in order to progress. The utterly horrible procurement of what we thought was the best from the beginning of our journey was an eye-opener.
Now we know that our prided knowledge was only at the begining. It could not be procured without the best educators but only if we were fools who believes in black & white. As we expand our search for the thirst of knowledge, we learned that it was the CLEVEREST thing to ever be done & in doing that we learned the random negativity of staying. Hence, the urge to move is more vigorous as compared to before. So we move to a better place to gain better knowledge. More hands on rather than hands off.

Young Love
Teenagers or young adults these days just love getting themselves cooped up in commitments that somehow would be broken by infidelity in the end. Their profess "love" at the early stages of their youthful life seems to be the most common thing we find in this era. Just as how we see so many "perfect" marriages are being splayed apart. Oh how few of these young adults would realize the meaning of being youthful & fully committed to a person when the time is right.
As for the few who seeks for such commitments. They make it their mission. Their mission to find true love. Their claims of not being a whole because there's no Adam or Eve in their life. So much so that they make life for themselves at time a living, depressed life. Why is it so hard to live life to the fullest? Why is it that people think that in order for you to have a perfect life you need a partner to live it or money for that matter?
I mean god gave us hands, feets, eyes, ears, hands & every mechanism for us to move & breathe. He didn't say that you must have a perfect partner to make your every mechanism a perfect creation of God. So... Why oh why do people of such things. It has become a habit even the eldest are fed up of it. Them deem that these youngsters confession of Love are called foolish. To think about it, I think it's true. How about you think about it?

Dependency = Not reliable
I maybe young, immature & naive but one thing for sure I know is that depending on others is the wrong thing to do. So I might be in my teens but I do know a thing or two about hard labour. Yes I do come from a middle class family, so you might think I don't know what's labour. Believe me you shouldn't judge a girl by the richness of her parents. To be honest I'm not rich with money, I'm just rich with character. The one who is really rich is GOD. He has everything that money can't buy. What is that? You should ask him. =D
You can rely on your parents but until how long do you want to rely on them. Someday they'll leave us behind & go places where we can't go until it's our time. So rely on your friends you say. Until how long are you going to rely on your friends. Friends come & go. They don't stay with you forever as you grow up you actually grow apart as the mindset matures & it thinks differently.
If you want to rely on your friends until how long are you going to do that. Someday they'll leave you behind because your not independent. Someday they'll just get annoyed at you because you depend so much on them and they'll leave you stranded in the situation you're in.
So tell me who can you rely on but yourself. Isn't that the best policy. I believe so because depending on others tends to bring you disappointment & when you are disappointed nothing in the world could make you happy at that point of time. Disappointment is much worst then being left by your boyfriend or girlfriend.
If there's 1 thing I've realize in the years I've grown it would be not relying on anyone not even your own family. Pathetic, I know. Don't have to strained on that part, I know myself. But isn't it not the truth? Just give it some thought. =)

Old school workaholic?
Being old school is considered a bore. Youngsters my age thinks old school is too OLD & it's meant for elderly. Well this was said by the frequent clubbers. Well what good is techno, anyways?? It's some blasted music with a rhythm that repeats itself with awfully loud bass that drowns the tune. How people could stand clubbing, I don't know but I for one can't stand the excessively loud bass drumming in a small closure with carbon monoxide in the air. =D
Now listening to old school, jazz, r&b, classical music with good company & some beers or liquor is the best thing. It's just a time to unwind & relax have a few chats & maybe hit home with a 1 night stand. I don't know, who knows only God knows. So why am I getting terrible response when I say, " I don't club". Haha! I guess the whole outlook of me is really bringing that impression around. However, I like the idea how people think I'm that kind of person but I turn out to be another. Ace for me! I can't help it that I'm old fashion at heart but young on appearance. At times I look way too young but no matter. It's all about staying yourself.
On the other hand, I guess I can understand how work can be such addiction. Well if you're working for a career you love. I betcha' that you'll work yourself to death if you are so addicted to it. Work can be as addictive as ciggarettes, drugs, alcohol & tattoos. Like I said I find that you can be a workaholic if you love what you doing. Basically your mind is all focused on that one particular thing.
What about money you asked?
I don't think that money would play much of it if you love the work you do. The only thing you would look forward too is another day at work. Yes although at times it could be stressful but it's the challenge that makes you want to come back again & improved yourself. I get how people can be a workaholic & this is one of the reason. Maybe soon I'll figure out more. But for now.. Life is about being real & original.
I am what I am.

Reality
We humans breathe oxygen supplied by the atmosphere, we humans exhale carbon dioxide that has been evolved from oxygen, we humans experience first hand love from our parents, we humans can't live without a life partner, we humans step on each other to get on top, we humans get jealous when another human is better.
The thing is that is REALITY. We can't stray from reality, the fact of the matter is reality is right in front of our face & we just can't run away. Go away & live in your own world, a world you created & want to live but someone or something would smack you out of it. Then you would be back into reality. Reality hurts, imaginary does not. Reality eats you but imaginary does not. Reality grants you assurance.
Assurance that you would learn to love, to spend, to gain, to die, to fight, to kill, to experience. But no imaginary would grant you that. It only grants you a fantasy that would never come true unless you are so rich that you buy your fantasy but then reality would hit you back. The fact of the matter is reality is in the skin, blood & organs of us. To part from it is suicidal.
The reality is I love being by myself & I dislike hanging around so much with people. The reality is I hate selfish people. The reality is I never actually like most people except for the 1 or 2 that has made my life a serene, peaceful & enjoyable one. The rest are only, I need you when I want other than that I'm just a human who faces reality like breathing oxygen. This was what I was brought up to believe that reality will smack you right in the face.
So get out of your fantasy & face the facts. Because reality will haunt you & it will stay with you till the day you die.

Let the ignorant fools be schooled
What say you if you realize that someone is saying something wrong & you correct them but instead of a thank you, you get.. "do not correct me". Now now if such words were thrown to your face what would be your reaction? Satisfied? Angry? Upset? No feelings?.. Basically, you're just gonna think that the person is a moron, am I right?
So if such a person existed which is a mighty yes what would you do such people? Torture? Ignore? I'll go with ignore & silent torture. The silent torture is smiling at every wrong things the person has done. Just keep smiling and do not even give a hint or correction or to advice. Just plain ignore with a smile & that my friend would get such people to a boiling point that he/she cannot take it anymore & would just burst. Now that is the sight to see. When all patience run out & the bomb has exploded. I just so love to see such things.
People love stepping on my toe when I keep my trap shut. Step.. step.. step is what they love doing to poor me. Pity? Yes I think so but it's not for me but for them because just like a bomb. Each person has his/her explosion time & that time would rise when the wick of the bomb is at its last strand of barrier & the defense line is broken & BOOM you get an exploded bomb.
My advice, never push the boundaries unless you are prepared with an armor at hand & a dagger at the other. Torture is the only the beginning of the movie, explosion is what that excites everyone most.
