Saturday, September 29, 2007 Back from the usual court soccer just now, i suddenly have the urge to blog this down, perhaps to share with someone, or everyone. . .I was having my cool down rest in the living room, having came home with a heated body after the game. . . My dad was watching tv on the sofa. . i stood leaning my weight on the wooden frame of the sofa and then, we became engaged in a conversation. . . He started off telling me something that i didn't actually know about my sister. . . that she was now dating somebody. . . it wasn't a surprise, for i had noticed her courtship mood for some time then. . . it wouldn't be an issue worth mentioning if the guy isn't a christian. . . being a buddhist, which all the five of us in the family are, my dad was kinda concerned that about this courtship. . . he worried that the relationship wouldn't last long because of the difference in belief. . . even if they happen to get married and have children, there may be possible conflicts arising due to this. . . it was something worth thinking about, since my sister is now 29, an age where most other girls had already rang the wedding bells. . . i tried to ease my dad's worries. . . and i tried to prove my point, that religion shouldn't be a case a worry in a relationship, what matters is the character of the other party. . . what the point of being with someone who smokes, beat up his parents, or do all sorta stuffs that normal beings won't see eye to eye even if he is a buddhist. . . i'm sure a nice christian fella will be a million times a better choice. . . i can see that he got my point, but still, this wasn't the only thing that bothered him. . . he didn't say it, yet i can feel that he is upset that my sister seemed ever so busy that she don't spend any much time at home with the family. . . my dad is a stubborn guy, someone with quite a nasty temper, someone who is hard on the outside but soft in the inside. . . he told me that if my sister get married in future, he won't ask of her to come back to visit him or whatsoever, he said he don't need it. . . he continued telling me more. . . all the negative thoughts that he has about himself and my sister. . . i tried to explain for my sister. . . that at her age, i'm sure that she is seeking the life that she wants, when she found it she will return to us. . but my dad didn't accept, of course, given his kinda temper. . yet i felt he actually will listen to my words. . till this age, i guess i have the maturity to say things that an adult will find meaningful. . . to be honest, i was quite heartbroken when i realised that he have actually such low faith in sis, or maybe even me and brother. . . i added saying, that me and my brother, no matter what we did, where we are, there will always be this thing called filial piety in our heart, that we won't let our parents down. . . it was quite amazing that i will actually say it. . . for i will never say such things to my dad in the past. . perhaps as you grow older, you know that certain things if you never say, it can never be felt. . . i wanted to give him the assurance that me and my brother will never forget about the responsibility that we have in our parents anywhere anyhow. . . perhaps we have our own life now, perhaps we have our own different dividual responsibilities. . . one thing can never be forgotten, that is filial piety. . . never forget how your parent give you this life, brought you up and give you what you have now. . i know that he is happy to hear my words. . . even though as usual, he's hard on the outside. . . for a man at his fifties, who had gone through so much, you have just got so used to not showing your weaker side to others that you had totally lost the ability to show your true self in front of people you love and trust. . . |
