Reflections....

Was in a meeting at a school today, the teacher was telling me how kids from that school hated to be treated like kids and how they think that they know everything. This got me thinking when I was driving home.

There was a time when I too was at their age and often think that I know alot, I have been throught enough to know things around. Looking back, I often laugh at myself for being silly and naive...

At 16, I thought I was smart enough to out talk my teachers, then I realised at 18 that they were being kind.

At 20, I thought I have been through enough to stay alone in Australia, then I realised at 22 that I was too headstrong to admit that I needed my family to be with me.

At 23, I thought when it comes to relationships I'd just compensate by doing the right things I didn not do in the previous one that failed on me. Then it surprised me at 25 that no two relationships can be the same.

At 27, well... I just wanna take things one at a time. Learning how to take things with a pinch of salt and adjust to make things right one step at a time no more assuming that things will get better by themselves. Oh yeh last but not least, its a retribution that I work with horrible kids because I have been one - just like them.
