my family @ singapore from papa @ doha
today i opened my journal and read my son's journal....
i am happy and not happy.....you know why????
dear hadi,
i know you are missing me...but, no doubt we are a thousand miles away, you all are always very close to my heart.
i've tried and opened all sorts of communication channels [ yahoo mail, yahoo greetings,skype, LJ, mobile phone,etc; ]in preparation of this long distance talks...all you need to do is type or punch some numbers and we are on-line.
anyway, i am glad you've talk to your sister and persuade her to drop the idea but i must say something for you to think it over....
1 ) do not use dirty or vulgar language to convey your message...this will only breed contempt...acceptance to your advise is so much better than complying to your order...
2 ) i do not think nadiah is and will becomes what you are thinking just by distributing flyers on the street...i used to loathe these people but they are just doing their job to earn their living...what they did to their earning is what we need to address...i know to her it is an easy money just standing there the whole day and get paid...
3 ) what we have to advise her is....
a ) people may take advantage of her because they may lay her a traps for their own devious ends...
b ) by having money at an early age will corrupts her mind thinking that making money is easy and will exposes her to more easy money making jobs...you know what i means..
c ) the whole family cares for her and she should be open to all family member for all her problem..
as for you hadi, this is papa advise...
1 ) do not be a proud person and look down on people just because they distribute flyers...for some reasons beyond your power [ just released from "school" maybe ] that is the only works they can do for their sustainance...they also have a family to feed...do you know that?...of course you dont because you have already spat at his face instead of taking his flyers and says thank you...why dont you try one day to the mall and receive these people's flyer and says thank you. if you can ask them " how are you ? "...trust me, it will make their day...
2 ) lead by example...you look at papa when i am at home...everyone knew my habit including you...i will come back from work...bathe...then sit at the sofa watching TV until bed time...what does it tell you ???
the answer is = my father is always around when i needed him...
so , if you change 'father' to 'brother'...then it will solve a lot's of problem that you are facing now as the man of the house...
that is all i have time to log my journal...till the next update...be strong and firm...
papa
