Learn from the young ones.

Sometimes, we might ignore the words from the children. Thinking that they are crapping and they are too childish. They might be childish, they might be innocent and doesn't know anything, but sometimes, they have a better moral value than us. Please continue to read to know what I have found about my little, 7 years old cousin that we should learn from.

Today, there was an event, CHAMPS Carnival, organized by my Church, Renewal Lutheran Church. This event is for every children from age 7 to 12. Please click >>HERE<< to know more about CHAMPS. This event is like a fun fair with many game stalls for the children to play. Every children was given a card to collect their stickers. Once a person won the game, he/she was given a sticker or maybe two. Then there was a counter for them to redeem their prizes depending on the number of stickers they collected. There was toys, cute tissue boxes, cute clothe baskets and many more for them to redeem.

While they were playing their games, I walked to my cousin and asked him why he didn't wanted to redeem the prizes since he had collected so many stickers, but he just said that he need more. After the event ended, most of the children went to redeem their prizes from the counter and my cousin went too. He used up all his stickers to redeem a clothe basket that need 20 stickers. I felt curious, but I just ignored him, maybe because of the cuteness of the basket that attracted him.

When my mom was fetching my cousin back to his house, my mom asked him, why he wanted to redeem the basket instead of those cute toys that most of the children aiming for. Then, he replied, "I redeemed this for my mom to put her clothes". I was really shocked from his reply. He used all his stickers just to redeem a prize for his mom! He is so young yet so caring!

Once my mom reached his house, my mom told his mom about the incident. Then his mom said my cousin always behaves this way. Even they brought him to the theme park, he will always redeem prizes for his mom instead of himself. There was once he redeemed a mug for him mom.

We should learn from this caring little boy. Always remember and appreciate the one who loves and cares for us. =)

Tiny creatures.

Once upon a time, there was a young man, named Alexander. He lived in a normal, ordinary house with his warm and caring family.

One day, while Alexander was playing with his laptop, he heard tiny voices came from no where. He felt curious. Then he ignored it, thought that it might be some kind of sound that came from the laptop. However, the voices became louder and louder, which distracted his attention from his laptop. He stretched his ears, tried to hear what was that. It sounded like children screaming, yelling, laughing, and talking! Many things ran through his mind once he heard that; it could be children playing outside his house, it could be the sound came from the laptop, it could be from his phone, it could be from everywhere!

In a split second, Alexander stood up and ran his hands over everything he saw in his room. Flipped, tossed and lifted up everything, tried to find where the sound came from. After he searched the whole room and nothing was found. He was exhausted. Flows of sweat ran down from his forehead. Then he stretched his body and gave a long sigh. Disappointingly, he sat on his chair, rested his arm on the table and stared on the ceiling, wondered where the sound came from.

"Hey, you!" Once again, he heard the tiny voice. It was clear and loud this time.

"Heeeeeey.... Giant! I'm calling you!" said the tiny voice. Alexander felt curious when he heard the tiny voice called him giant. Then he felt a light jerk on his sleeve. Quickly, he turned his head and saw tiny white moving thing that was pulling his sleeve. He moved his head forward to have a closer look and he saw a tiny person! The tiny person was wearing a white shirt and pants. Out of curiosity, Alexander picked up the tiny person and greeted him. They had a short and great conversation.

After that, the tiny little person invited Alexander to meet his friends. Alexander agreed and followed him to their hideout, which is behind a huge book. Then Alexander lifted the book and put it aside. His eyes grew bigger and his mouth wide opened when he saw what was hidden behind the huge book. There were so many of them! Each of the tiny person look exactly like the one he first met. They were running, playing, and laughing around the stationaries where Alexander left behind the huge book a few years ago. Without thinking, Alexander quickly grabbed his camera phone and took a picture of what he saw.

This is the picture he took:

Soon, Alexander and the tiny humans became friends and they live happily ever after. The End.

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.


The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.

The little girl said, 'When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'.

The teacher asked, 'What if Jonah went to hell?'

The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him'.






A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.

As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.

The girl replied, 'I'm drawing God.'

The teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like.'

Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, 'They will in a minute.'



One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.

She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, 'Why are some of your hairs white, Mum?'

Her mother replied, 'Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.'

The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, 'Mummy, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?'




The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

'Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor..'

A small voice at the back of the room rang out, 'And there's the teacher, she's dead..'



A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, 'Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.'

'Yes,' the class said.

'Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?'

A little fellow shouted,
'Cause your feet ain't empty.'




The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray:

'Take only ONE . God is watching.'

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.

A child had written a note, 'Take all you want. God is watching the apples.'

Myself by me.

Suddenly felt like drawing myself. So here it is: (click on the picture for a bigger view)


I'm not really satisfy with it. Spent few hours drawing and editing it but still feel that there's something missing.

Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks.
