Reflection - Changing myself.

After reading Kennysia archive on 'Adventures In Sapa, North Vietnam', lots of thoughts flowing through my mind. I wondered if I took what I have in life for granted, the people around me for granted and also, studies for granted. I looked at all those beautiful sceneries that were captured by Kenny, those streets that were filled with litters from the irresponsible tourists and also, the bad living condition. I was inspired and immediately, I woke up from thoughts of not having a better life.

Perhaps, we should slow down a little. Use our hearts to feel the things that Singapore's government had built for us and also, feel the hearts of families and friends around us, how they always am there when we need them and how we always take them from granted. I felt a sense of guilt in me too, because I always neglect the people that care for me. I always treat their nagging as nonsense. Not only that, I always make empty promises to the teachers that care for me in school. I let my parents, teachers and friends down.

Being guilty for all those I've done, I want to amend it. I want to change to be a better boy. I reckon that it's not too late to change. Because when you change, people will accept you. But when you don't, you are condemn forever. Therefore, I'm slowing down to admire my beautiful 'Garden City'. Studying hard for my future and also, to the teachers I've disappoint times and again. Much more filial to my parents and take those nagging as one of the important source of having a good life. Last but not least, to be loyal to my friends and stop making fun of them.

I reckon that my above amendments will help me to a brighter future and therefore wanted to encourage you to amend your mistakes as it's not too late to change.
