Things I would tell my children, if I have one

My husband would comment "Thank God we don't have any!

I was walking on the street and was talking inside my head.. you know how we, as a human being.. are very opinionated till the edge of being nosy and too much on the detail?

These are several things I would tell my children (or any other human being who will not think that I am too much controlling and like to hear my own voice)

1. Being different is ok, never try to make everything the same and uniform

2. When you see somebody doing and being not the same as you do or are..think twice before you mock them in your head.. because it means that they could do it more than one way - more than how you can do it

3. The temptation of pride, class, consumerism, enjoying fine things in life is always there and everywhere.. nothing wrong with that.. but I tell you, being sensible and prepare for the rainy days (or draught days - only if you are an Indonesian) is a must - you'll never regret it.

4. Life is a process.. so don't be surprise if there is no end or purpose in it

5. You make mistakes.. everybody do, and it is ok, as long as you take the appropriate amount of time to mourn over it, then get on with other things, the saying, better late than never really does make sense.. wouldn't want to miss another opportunities just because we were laying on the bed moping on our previous fall, would we?
And remember it, so you don't do it again in the future.

6. On your dying bed, you won't regret that you should have spent more time with the people you don't like, but you will regret of not spending more time with the people you like and mean a lot for you

7. Laziness is the start of devil work;)

8. When you enjoy doing something or picking up a hobby.. don't pressurise yourself to stick with it or trying to be the best at it.. it is suppose to make you relax and enjoy yourself, if later on you are bored, then just change with the new thing which exciting to you

9. A bit of adrenaline rush, worry, curiosity and lots of laugh - that are the main ingredients to be happy

10. I still can't make up my mind if Darwin's evolution theory is clashing with the bible's how the world started or not
