The most rewarding job




I received an email a few days ago that mentioned the life of parents.
How they nurtured us when we were a toddler;How they care for us when we were sick;How they console us when we were down;How they stand up for us;How they helped us in every single way that they can...

Now,how about us? Have we stayed up late just to take care of our parents when they are sick? have we been ignoring them whenever they speak up? have we been away from home whole day just to meet up with friends? have we actually think how they would've felt?

Even tough the children tend to ignore the parents and spare little love compared to the love of parents, parents is actually a pretty rewarding job. Looking at the children growing day by day to be a fine gentleman or a lady. How joyful the heart of a parent would be.Looking at the results of their own upbringing, how rewarding it is.

Ask any young parents, after they have worked their sweat out in the day, what do they feel when their young little child came and sing an out of tune "twinkle twinkle little star"... indeed, parenting is not an easy task, but rewarding in many ways...

To the parents, Thank you for everything that you've done. We as children truly appreciate that even though it doesn't look like it.

To the children, spend some time with your parents, even if it is just sitting beside them without saying a word, it is still a very, very special moments for your parents.
