Mum, I want to make mistakes of my own..

Mothers always want the best for their children. No doubt about that, coz I'm a mother too..They will try all their best to see their children lead a happy life according to what they have set the picture in their mind. Mothers will not let their children make mistakes, watch them get hurt, or even fail in their life.. However, do we mothers ever wonder that:

1) The mistakes that our children make, will make them wiser, help them grow up, become more mature, and more responsible? this is what each and every person have to go through in life.. Make mistakes, and learn from it.. That's the learning curve..

2) Get hurt, physically or emotionally.. that's just what life is about.. "jangan lompat, nanti jatuh!!", "jangan bercinta masa belajar, nanti you'll get hurt if he dumps you!!", jangan lari, nanti jatuh, luke, sakit!!".. These are all that mothers worry about.. Kalo camtu, xkan anak2 tak belajar nak lompat? nak lari? nak bercinta? Xdapat la anak2 nak jadi pelari pecut, kalo takut jatuh.. Terpaksa la anak kita jadi andartu, atau bujang sampai mati kalo takut nak bercinta..

3) You will never fail in life, if whenever you fall down, you get up again, and learn something from it.. There's no such thing as a failure, if what you learn from it, makes you a better person in the future.. And the most important thing is, how do you define if someone is a failure or not? from whose perspective? dari mata siapa?

I know that mothers always wants the best for their children, but sometimes you just need to get loose, be more understanding, and just stay back and watch.. Let your children make mistakes once in a while, and be the person who they will come to, to ask for advice and guidance.. Dont be the one who they will run away from, and hide stuff from, just because they want to learn about life.. Happy Mother's Day to my mum.. Please mum, I want to make my own mistakes and learn from them too, so that I can grow up to be a better and wiser person.. :D
