Reflections of Me and You

What I see within, I also see in you.

We are so much alike, but also so different.

We could change ourselves to blend in with the rest, but still, “me and you” are only reflections of whom we strive to be.

What is real and what is fake?

Only “me and you” holds the key awareness of our true identities.

Reflections of “me and you” could bounce back tenfold, either for good or bad if not handled wisely.

Please take care of “me and you”

Moral lesson:

Living in harmony with others requires a well balance mind and continuous acceptance of other cultures. Beneath it all, we are still emotionally connected through similar experiences.

Life of a rebellious daughter

Scenario 1: Voicing your opinion

Immigrant Mother: “If you listen and do as I say, one day you will thank me for all that I am teaching you.”

Daughter: “But mother, I don’t want to learn to do these boring chores. Why are women stuck with household duties?”

Immigrant Mother: “One day, to marry a good husband, you must know.”

Daughter: “What if I don’t want to marry? If I do, I will have an independent husband that knows all these household duties.”

Immigrant Mother: “Daughter, your future husband would appreciate you more.”

Daughter: “Wouldn’t he appreciate me more if I make more money and hire a housekeeper?”

Immigrant Mother: “No, no …you silly daughter! You save money doing it yourself!”

Moral lesson:

Sometimes we are stuck in a generational gap situation. Voicing your opinion to your immigrant mother is not a winning battle. She was raised by my traditional grandmother in a different era. Feminism doesn’t exist in her world.

Past, Present, and Future

Leave the past behind, because it no longer matters…

You can’t change what has been said and done.

Live in the present, because it is a gift of opportunity to start again.

Search and look within to find happiness.

Plan for the future, to find meaning in your life journey.

Envision your future and hold your dreams tightly within your grasp.

Past, present and future.

These are chapters of your life story.
