i thank you first
the rule of frienship means there should be a mutual sympathy between them,each supplying what the other lasts and trying to benefit the other,
always using friendly and sincere words.
don't you realised that when being corrected by your closed one in a teasing-way followed by some laughter, you would feel much ache?
if you know anything that us hurtful and untrue, do not say it
if you know anything that is helpful but untrue, do not say it
if you know anyhting that is hurtful but true, do not say it
if you know anything that is helpful and true, find the right time
i despise people like that. and i myself hope that my friends will correct me in a well-mannered way as though she/he sincerely wants me to learn something. i remember being corrected when i say something wrong by a friend and she/he was practically laughing at my words. this friend is a close friend, mind you. if this is the only way you could make me learn, i rather be wrong and live with the wrong words all my life.
in college, i sincerely help them who aren't very good in english and all i hope is that they won't think i'm not 'showing off'. i sure do hope they would learn to converse well and not have negatives thoughts on my good intentions.
same goes amongst my english educated friends. i don't get to learn my from my college mates, therefore i hope i could improve my english with you all. we might be very close by it is the closed one, i was hurt from. can you imagine being laughed at something you were uncertain about from your loved ones. at times, i would thought, i shall just shuddup knowing that i will be humiliated. fine. if its jokes and all i won't mind and would even laugh along but you should know when to joke and when not to.
we should help sincerly, we should teach with good intentions.
everything that happens to us is the result
of what overselves have thought, said and done.
we alone are responsible for our own lives.
you might laugh at me now, i bet in years i'll be ahead of you
he who receives kindness should never forget it,
but he who performs kindness should never remember it.
for those who've helped me in several ways, i really do appreciate. i remember during last sem's finals, this very helpful class mate of mine, Huey Ru thought me accountings from the very first page and she didn't ask for any returns, at all..i'm contented with my grade B.thank you, girl.
speaking pleasant words without practicing them, is like a fine flower without fragrance
i apologise for words i've used which hurt anyone of you indirectly. we are all so close and we all know we love each another. i don't wish to hurt anyone of my friends and being hurt by anyone of you, again.
think before you speak for words are poisonous, esp towards loved ones.
not too harsh, just be sincere.
i hope i can adopt this good-being.
