On learning to be more patient
Posted on Jan 18 2010 6:03
I got really angry with my younger brother John yesterday when he threw away all my papers in the garbage knowing that those are my most precious collection of poems and paper writing. I collected all those since I was in elementary school. The poems given to me by my suitors were also included there.
I learned about that right after I went back from school knowing that my things are still in their proper places to the time I left those. Actually, I never let anyone to enter in my room especially my younger brother since it's my own haven. Even my mother can't enter in my room even if she just wanted to clean it. I just tell her that I'll be the one to clean it when I have time. She won't ask me anymore after that.
I really cried learning that all my collections were just thrown in garbage. Even if I like to hit and shout at my brother, I just can't because first, my parents won't let me do that and second, John is my little brother. As an older sister, I should be the one protecting my brother and not hurt him.
To ease the pain I am feeling, I just stayed in my room the whole day the next day and cried my heart out. That helped me though to forget about what happened.
