Chicken Or Egg Comes First? PaPa or MaMa Comes First?

Do you still remember how you look like when you first entered this world?

Yes, that's how you appear to be when you first came into this world. How "adorable" you look, when everybody around you smile and laugh, you're the only one crying.

Do you know why you cried? Because you're too comfy inside your mummy's tummy. Still remember how you were treated when you're inside mummy's tummy? You were well-fed with bird nest, tonics and etc, carefully taken care by papa and mama and each night before you sleep, you get to listen to nursery stories.


With reference with my previous post for " ... Dad, ...Dad ", I'm going to talk about the gardener for this post.

Who is the gardener? The gardener is one who doesn't give up on the seedling when it's wilting, because she knows that one day, the seedling is going to blossom, bear fruits and disperse seeds. Let's not talk about dispersing the seeds for now.

The gardener sees through the stages of the seedling growing from a seed, into a beautiful flower with fruits. How many of us realised the effort being used by the gardener into grooming a nothing, into something?


I guess, most of us takes thing for granted. I have to admit, I'm guilty. Many a time, homosepiens only know how to cherish things when they realised they are losing it, or lost it. I know this sounds like a cliché.. I know, I know you tried to cherish, however, your mum just doesn't understand what you're going through and stuffs. How you wish that they would just let you have your way without questionings. That they are old-fashion and just like to nagggggggggg you.


But hey, do you remember kicking your mum in her tummy in the 9months of her pregnancy? Do you remember her waking up in the wee hours just to feed you because you cried for food? Do you remember peeing and puking on her shirt? Oh wait, you did that on dad too. Did you? Who's the one singing lullaby before you sleep? Who's the one worrying and couldn't take a wink when you're having fever? Giving you encouragement on the first day of nursery school and so much more to mention. I believe you get what I'm trying to get across here.
She's always there when you needed help.

For the first part of your life, she's there guiding you. Giving her best to groom you into something useful to the society. Both the rich man and the gardener will want to see their seed blossom into a flower. Neither of them will want to see it wilting and die off.

The stronger you grow, the older they become. Before long, you will enter the second part of your life. And then will find yourself being with your sweetheart that you believe you can't live without. Unconsciously, you will start to spend more time with your sweetheart rather than staying at home listening to nags. Some may have to juggle the time between sweetheart and family. While some can bring their sweetheart home and live a great life. Ha ha, I'm digressing again.


Coming back, you will find a sweetheart who doesn't nag you as much as your mum. Unconsciously, you will like to spend more time with her, rather than staying home and get nagged.
As time goes, you and your mum seems to have nothing to talk about. From talking about your favorite TV shows like 'Barney and Friends', 'Sesame Street' , 'Power Rangers' and etc, it slowly cuts down to, "I'm Home" and "I'm Going Out". Some of the conversations are so similar that you can just use a recorder and put it on repeat mode.
As we grow mature with thicker hair, and more hair growing at certain areas; shall not go in depth where. Noticed that your mum's hair is becoming gray? Before you know it, it will soon turn white.


I believe we need a little reminder...at times... =]

Something interesting I read recently:
Quoted:
"When you were first brought into this world, everybody were laughing and smiling while you were left crying.
However, when you are about to leave this world, you are laughing and smiling while others were left crying."

Quoted:
"Cherish what you have
You never know what you have until you lose it, and once you lose it, you can never get it back"



This is just my two cents' worth of view.. haha..
