Exam Finished

Finally, my examination is finished. Within this semester, although I have been facing some difficulties, I have felt good along this examination. 3 weeks examination indeed not so tough. I think I have done my best already. Furthermore, I hope I can score high grade for my exam because I have make a lot of efforts to do it. Now It's time for me to enjoy my holiday.

         Tomorrow I will be headed to my hometown. Next semester will be a new fresh semester 6 for me.

Somehow  I have to do many things at home.

        I really felt tired for this semester. I don't know why. Perhaps my self-expectation is too high. My friends told me that actually I need to relax myself. I still keep on learning.

       This semester I have also done some beneficial thing for me and for other students. I have joined the DiZiGui committees and was having speeches  in UPSI. This confucious old tradition is very useful and is part of our life. We need to keep on learning and become a better person.

       Indeed, My birthday is on 1st of November. That means It's is on the exam season, I thought nobody celebrate for my birthday. But surprisingly, my friend celebrate for me and I was very happy.

       Anything I can say? Thanks to my friends who existed  in my life. :)

拾椹供親

在漢朝，有個讀書人叫蔡順，他母親喜歡吃桑椹。有一天，蔡順出外去採桑椹，他拿了兩個籃子，一個裝黑色或紫色的，另外一個裝比較紅色的。為什麼要分成兩個籃子？因為比較熟的桑椹是黑色、紫色的，還不是很熟的是紅色。蔡順在回家的路上遇到了強盜。
強盜們也很納悶，把他抓起來，就問他：「你為什麼採桑椹要分兩邊？」他說：「因為熟的比較甜，是留給我母親吃的；這邊不太熟的，是留給自己吃的。」
強盜們聽了很受感動，就把他放了。強盜都是殺人不眨眼的，為何會把他放了？因為蔡順的孝心喚醒了他們的孝心。所以，我們要相信「人之初，性本善」，只要我們有好的德行，再惡的人也會被感化。我們面對惡人的時候，要不要去責罵他？不需要！最重要的是我們自己做好，來影響他，影響社會。
強盜們因為很感動，就把一些米和一些東西送給蔡順，讓他拿這些東西奉養母親。然而，蔡順並沒有拿。假如他拿回去才放到家裡，突然官府裡的官員來了。進門一看：張三家的米為什麼在你家？李四家的菜為什麼在你家？此是人贓俱獲，百口莫辯。所以，要拿任何人的東西，一定要先思考物品的來路是否清楚！孔夫子說「君子有九思」，就是君子有九個方面要時時觀照，時時反思。這九思當中就提到「見得思義」。我們要獲得任何一樣東西，首先就要考慮到它的來路是否符合道義。假如與道義相違背，就絕對不能動用。所謂「君子愛財，取之有道」。
我們跟孩子們每講一個故事，其中都蘊含著很多道理。這個故事蘊含的第一個道理，是「親所好，力為具」。第二個道理，是「人之初，性本善」，我們應該用德行去感化。第三個道理，是「見得思義」，「君子愛財，取之有道」。當我們在跟學生講故事時，假如不把這些道理開顯，學生留下的印象，只是覺得聽了一個故事。假如只是單純講道理，沒有講故事，一般人聽久了道理很可能會昏沈。所以，理與事要融合在一起，要理事圓融來講故事。如此，學生就會很容易吸收其中蘊含的道理。
