Emotional Story About Family and Work

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

SON: “Daddy, may I ask you a question?”

DAD: “Yeah sure, what is it?” replied the man.

SON: “Daddy, how much do you make an hour?”

DAD: “That’s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily.

SON: “I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?”

DAD: “If you must know, I make Rs.100 an hour.”

SON: “Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down.

SON: “Daddy, may I please borrow Rs.50?”

The father was furious, “If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior.”

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that Rs.50 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door.

“Are you asleep, son?” He asked.

“No daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy.

“I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier” said the man.”It’s been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.. Here’s the Rs.50 you asked for.”

The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh, thank you daddy!” He yelled.

Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.”

Why do you want more money if you already have some?” the father grumbled.

“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,” the little boy replied.

“Daddy, I have Rs.100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”

The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.

It’s just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts.Do remember to share that Rs.100 worth of your time with someone you love?

High School Feeling

          In high school I became fearing about what others think of me.

          My mission in life became too small and not being embarrassed.

          I was afraid to look bad, that’s why i didn’t make myself to take risks.

          Most people designed their entire lives based on what other people think of them.

                                                 But

          It’s what I review myself:

     ” Why should the way I feel depend on the thought in someone else’s head.”

Thank brother that gives this holy thing to me ! It’s changing my life.

 

My First Lesson From Koh Tral ( Phu Quoc )

 

Koh Tral Island

Location: Koh Tral  Island lies in the Gulf of Thailand,15km south of the coast of The Kingdom Of Cambodia and 45km from Hatien( VietNam ).The Island covers the area of 585qkm.

                                 

I have no any idea to express besides  MMM….( Sound Of Deep Breathing ) when a part of My Belove Cambodian Territory Was

Below is quoted from:

A note by H.E. Dr. Say Bory
        August 16, 2000.

 1856: King Ang Duong apprise Mr. de Montigny, French envoy in visit to Bangkok, through the intermediary of Bishop Miche, his intention to yield Koh Tral to France (cf. “The Second [French] Empire of IndoChina”).

1863: Establishing the Protectorate of Cambodia, France annexed Kampuchea Krom, made a French colony out of it, and named it “Cochinchine”.

May 25, 1874: Koh Tral (Phu Quoc) which belonged to Cambodia (under the reign of King Ang Duong) was placed under the administration of the Governor of Cochinchine, i.e. under the administration of France, by the French Protectorate.

June 16, 1875: Koh Tral is attached to the inspection district of Hatien which was colonized by France. One needs to recall that in 1855, King Ang Duong reminded Napoleon III [first French President (1948-1852), later French Emperor (1852-1870)] that “the territories annexed by Vietnam located between the Western branch of the Mekong [River] and the Gulf of Siam (Hatien area) were “actually Cambodian land” (cf. A. Dolphin-Dauphin-Meunier – “History of Cambodia”, pg. 99). Therefore, Koh Tral always remains a Cambodian island, even though it is under the administration of colonial France.

 January 31, 1939: the “Brévié Line” which is not a maritime border demarcation, but rather a line dividing the police and administrative authority “on the islands along the Gulf of Siam” [was established]. By this act, Koh Tral was placed, as it did in 1875, under the French colonial administration of Cochinchine. Brévié himself specified that “the territorial dependence of these islands (including that of Phu Quoc) remains entirely reserved”.

June 04, 1949: In spite of Cambodian protests and the Deferre Motion [the Deferre Motion has been part of the Bill of Transfer of French Cochinchine to Vietnam which spelled out specific rights of the Khmer Krom people], France voted a law allowing the attachment of the Cochinchine territory (Khmer territory) to Vietnam.

 April 24, 1954: at the Geneva Conference, Cambodia still continued to protest against the unjust and uneven transfer of her Cochinchine lands to Vietnam by France, and reserved her right to litigate the case at the United Nations.

June 07, 1957: Norodom Sihanouk, President of the Council of Ministers, requested in a letter to Lon Nol, then National Defense Minister, to ensure the protection of all islands located along the Gulf of Siam (thus also including Koh Tral), and in particular, the group of islands of Poulo-Pangjang (Khmer name: Koh Krachak Ses; Vietnamese name: Tho Chu), Koh PouloWai (Khmer name: Koh Ach Ses) and Koh Tang.

 December 30, 1957: In his Kret regarding the delimitation of the Cambodian continental shelf, King Norodom Suramarit clearly reaffirmed that Cambodia reserved her retention on her historical rights to Koh Tral (cf. Article 6 of the Kret).

 1963: In the book “Cambodia Geography” published in 1963 by Tan Kim Huon, a Khmer scholar who was also an agricultural engineer and forestry expert, [he indicated that] Koh Tral is indeed a Cambodian island (cf. maps no. 3, 12, and 19).

1969: Koh Tral (Phu Quoc) is included in the official list of Cambodian islands published by the Industry and Mineral Resources Ministry, and was numbered 61 (on a total of 64 islands).

 July 01, 1972: Following the July 1, 1972 Kret, the Khmer Republic Government maintains its
reaffirmation of its sovereignty on its continental shelf and warns oil companies against [potential] consequences of any of their actions undertaken in this zone. Koh Tral still remains Cambodian.

 1975 to End of 1978: Status quo.

 July 07, 1982: Koh Tral (Phu Quoc) and Poulo-Pangjang (Tho Chu) appear in the Vietnamese territory, on a map attached to the “Treaty on the Historical Water Zone between the Popular Republic of Kampuchea and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam”.

Therefore, Vietnam annexes 30,000 sq. km. of Khmer maritime territory, and it creates the “historical sea” extending 10,000 sq. km. off of Koh Tral (cf. Cambodia: Oil Research, Continental Shelf – Mr. Sean Pengse, April 1995).

It’s Not Too Late To Start Our Challenges !

        My dear friends !

       Today, how old are we ? Should we say we are too old to start our dream and hope ? And should we say our life is coming to the end tomorrow ? 

My answer is ” No! “.  Today we all are young and strong ! Even we are too old, It’s never too late to build a dream and start our hope or to change our life to succeed !

                                               By what ways ?

        Start thinking with me of the long time that has passed by so far and we will find a treasure of life lessons that can help us achieve massive success. Be confident that we have a long life. But on the contrary, if the rest of our life is shorter than what has passed.  We also still have time to do what we love, what we want to do. Let’s choose with me; we have two choices. First, we can sit and regret the lost dreams. Second, we can go after our passion and dreams. which one you choose?  For me, the second choice ! Should we lose ourself to time and sit waiting for our death moment? Wake up with me !

Never lose hope ! As long as we are still alive, then we have a lot of chances to succeed and live the life we were born to live. Don’t end our hope and our dreams too easy ! There are more better ways out of these problems can be done. Enjoy every moment of our life.

Always remember that:

“It’s never too late to be what you might have been.” – George Eliot

Be work hard to reach our dream ! Our Камбоджа is always waiting for us. Let’s observe together with me friends ! How works hard of the bee to its kingdom: The bee has worked all summer and still work hard through raining season gathering nectar from flowers. Even hot or cold or rain the bee always acts responsibly to its function. How hard work the bee does ! How hard work  !

                                               

So never too late to start our challenging !

But start from where ? when ? with whom ?

Ya..! Start from Here! This time ! With me !
