Beautiful letter written by a father to his son and daughter 👌
Must send to your children
Following is a letter to his daughter from a renowned Hong Kong TV
broadcaster and Child Psychologist.
The words are actually applicable to all of us, young or old, children or
parents.!
This applies to all sons & daughters too.
All parents can use this in their teachings to their children.
Dear daughter,
I am writing this to you because of 3 reasons
1.Life, fortune and mishaps are unpredictable, nobody knows how long he
lives.
2. I am your father, and if I don't tell you these, no one else will.
3. Whatever written is my own personal bitter experiences that perhaps
could save you a lot of unnecessary heartaches.
Remember the following as you go through life
1. Do not bear grudge towards those who are not good to you. No one has the
responsibility of treating you well, except your mother and I.
To those who are good to you, you have to treasure it and be thankful, and
ALSO you have to be cautious, because, everyone has a motive for every
move. When a person is good to you, it does not mean he really will be good
to you. You have to be careful, don't hastily regard him as a real friend.
2. No one is indispensable, nothing is in the world that you must possess.
Once you understand this idea, it would be easier for you to go through
life when people around you don't want you anymore, or when you lose what
you wanted the most.
3. Life is short.
When you waste your life today, tomorrow you would find that life is
leaving you. The earlier you treasure your life, the better you enjoy life.
4. Love is nothing but a transient feeling, and this feeling would fade
with time and with one's mood. If your so called loved one leaves you, be
patient, time will wash away your aches and sadness.
Don't over exaggerate the beauty and sweetness of love, and don't over
exaggerate the sadness of falling out of love.
5.A lot of successful people did not receive a good education, that does
not mean that you can be successful by not studying hard! Whatever
knowledge you gain is your weapon in life.
One can go from rags to riches, but one has to start from some rags!
6.I do not expect you to financially support me when I am old, neither
would I financially support your whole life. My responsibility as a
supporter ends when you are grown up. After that, you decide whether you
want to travel in a public transport or in your limousine, whether rich or
poor.
7. You honour your words, but don't expect others to be so. You can be good
to people, but don't expect people to be good to you. If you don't
understand this, you would end up with unnecessary troubles.
8. I have bought lotteries for umpteen years, but could never strike any
prize. That shows if you want to be rich, you have to work hard! There is
no free lunch!
9. No matter how much time I have with you, let's treasure the time we have
together. We do not know if we would meet again in our next life.
Your Parents
