Took my usual double-decker bus ride, but this time it's lovely to get to hear how a father engages his 5-year old son gently and calmly in a conversation: "No it's not bad; it's good that you're trying. But there's a limit to everything. Limitations; especially at your age. You must learn to help yourself. And you must always love yourself, so that you can love others. There are people who don't even love themselves."
And when they spotted some foreign workers pruning the trees he said, "Look, they help to make Singapore more beautiful." What beautiful life lessons. Even I get to learn something. A good start to my Monday morning, alhamdulillah!
