Smite

Today, was a fine day. Eventhough it was a Sunday with replacement tuition sessions. Lol. But anyway, it's not that which matters. What matters, happened when I went to the coffee shop in USJ 2 for brunch.

So there I was, half-way eating Chow Kuey Teow with my white coffee, sharing a table with a pretty lady with my mom. Okay, I don't know if you get that.....but yeah. XD So, when I was about to finish my meal, there was this family that sat at the next table. There was the Dad, the Mom, the Daughter, who was about 30 I figured, and the Son, who was about 18-20.

See, there wasn't a problem at all. In fact, the Dad, Mom, and Daughter were perfectly merry. The Daughter offered to order this and that for her parents, and chatting away in the process. It was all typical. UNTIL, the Son came along. He sat down, with his cell phone and pack of cigarettes. [I hate smokers] Like that wasn't offending enough, he suddenly started to fight with his Dad. Verbally lah, of course. I wasn't sure what he was so pissed about, but when I listened closer, he was actually pissed, because his Dad asked him to order his drink for him.

I was like......."Dude." Just because his Dad asked him to order his drink for him, he started to bising like some stupid fellow, like his Dad was burdening him with the weight of the world. What an A-hole, I thought. He IS his Dad anyways, and he IS gonna order drinks anyway, so, how hard could it be?

So, the drama went on, until the Dad also couldn't take it anymore, and the Daughter started to lecture her little brother, and all that. But luckily, I was gonna leave already. Phew. What luck to have this fella sit next to my table.

In my mind during that whole time, was, "What does this guy think he is? That's your Dad, for God's sake. And you refused his little demand, while you yourself went and order Coke. A-hole, what an absolute A-hole." And I thought to myself, this will earn him a great almighty smiting from God one day. He will. Oh yes.

From this, I hope there isn't too many people like that Son in the world. And you! Hopefully you aren't like that. Parents are gifts from God that isn't buy-able, find-able, obtain-able. You either have them, or you don't. If you do, cherish them all you can, because they are all you have in this world, as guardians, as protectors, as mothers and fathers. Then, compare yourself to the people who doesn't have parents. Then you'll see.

So, anyways, if you fight with your parents, why not stop? If you haven't said I love you to your parents, why not start? Whatever it is, just don't be like that Son in the coffee shop. He's an A-hole, and I'm quite sure, you're not. =) Peace.
