Experiences

The young boy was angry at his friend Philip. Whole evening he would just say from time to time and Philip is no longer is his friend and it would be only Lucas and may be Harry who would be his friend. On much prodding, he said that he was angry because Philip ran away from him when Mas asked him to do so. He was angry with Mas too but was much more angry with philip. He also planned what he is going to say and do to Philip.
Nextday, his mom said that she got a call from Philip's mom and she had said that Philip was very worried and said previosu evening at dinner time and had said that his closest friend probably wouldnt keep him as his best friend.
The boy laughed a happy laugh and asked,'what did Philip said again, mama?'
Think friendship is always knowing being wanted and cared for. Hurt and misunderstanding are often the cause for moving apart.
True even when the boy and his Croetian friend is just about 8 and 9 yr old.

Seems Mas is moving to England and he has told his friend,'why dont you ask you dad to get a job in England?' The boy knows that his dad got a call from a headhunter for a job in UK. He said, 'why dont you take that job? I can then be with Mas?' Innocence is simplicity.

The man was looking for a medicine in the drawers and after sometimes found a old tube and went on to use it. The boy said,' Please check the expriery dates?' How do the eight year olds know about expiery dates needed for medicines?

The boy is always late for the scoll bus. He sleeps late and find it difficult to get up in the morning. Couple of days back he was specially late and ran to catch the bus. In the evening, he said seepishly,' the big guy told me, he you are damn late today, you need to sleep early. Why do you sleep late?' Being a leo, he answered' Oh, I watch TV'. Actually he gets late sleeping since he has to finish his homework and do komon. However, he was that day very conscious of going to bed early and next day got up without much prodding. He was obviously not late for the bus. What his parent have been trying to instill as a discipline of sleeping early and getting up early for last several years but never succeed got done by the big guy called Sameer who share the bus with the boy.
If one doesnt learn something needed from parents, he has to learn it from society, sometimes in bit hard way. Society always teaches one what we have to know and learn.
