Intention and courage

This Monday, at school, it was raining heavily and the wind was really strong. before that it was alright but suddenly a really strong wind came and actually made the rubbush bin fly up to the sky . On the way back home, we saw a whole tree uprooted my mother said that it happened because the intention was not clear . like the roots, if your intention is clear, the roots will go deep and not spread out ! Actually, after a day ,the tree somehow was planted back leafless and it was also another breakthrough for me about having courage to stand up. so, set the right and clear intention and when you fall, have courage to stand up!

The day before was my first day back at school after CV Grad Cambodia. I was a little nervous at first about going back to school after so long (although in reality what is there to worry about??) It was okay as the first day of school. People sort of  'commented' about my absence for so long, but I chose not to take it personally. I jsut accepted that it was the way they thought, and I chose to be aware of how I show up. :)

Yesterday, the teacher changed my seating position in class. This was because I was supposed to help a 'weaker' student in his studies. I never really liked this person, because he's so quiet and serious, and I am what you could call a chatterbox. :) But I realized this could prove as a good thing. You have to be good to help others be good in something. So I became aware that this was a reason for me to put in more effort to my studies, because not only do my grades depend on my hard work, so do his. Plus, the fact that he doesn't talk much could help me improve my communication skills. :P

Today--I didn't go to school because I had an upset stomach last night. I think this is a small issue, I could have gone to school today. But my dad, being, well..a dad, insisted that I stay home. I became aware that lots of people rely on their illness to seek attention from their loved ones. OR it can be the other way round, the loved ones jump at the chance to prove that they love the patient! :)

Haha, that's my 3-day recount of the past 3 days.
