affection

today was a hectic day. i spent most of the day in Faculty.i got class until 9 pm.
and went home,after some relaxing moment,i watched CSI NY..Then indulged myself watching
Camp Rock.It is unplanned.ALtho it is for teenagers,i watched it and observed what the characteristic of the western people which is good for us to adopt.First , they showed love and care (in this case,i refered to the parents-child,spouses relationship).How many of us recall how many times our parents show their love affectionately towards us?or how many times they congratulate us for our success and console us when we were sad?I guess the answer is relatively small consider the length of our life.In Camp Rock,the mother hugged her daughter when her daughter considerably won the battle of self-knowing and self-appreciating.I refer to Mitchie who came from lovable but moderate class of family.Her mother is a cook and Mitchie herself helping her mom to earn some cash for that camp. She is a talented singer.HOwever,she failed to acknowledge that she came from a mid-class family.In the heated arguments,her mother consoling her to be proud of herself no matter what and she continued to join the Final Camp and done absolutely magnificent performance.Her mother and father so proud.Not because of she was just talented but because she realized her own talent!!!see the differences between those two situation?Realizing your own talent takes self-appreciation.And her mother praised her for that quality!For me it is so deeply concerned with the way of building the child self-esteem which is very low in the eastern culture.We tend to have the attitude to leash all the negative but dumping all the positive factors on the closet.I just dont understand why.If one person deserve a praise,why dont we just say it?

alamak..suddenly my entry a bit menjela-jela..thank Allah..my migrain n headache is gone.and i know the cause : strain on my neck from long hours of laptop usage..i should take precaution after this.
