While we were growing up we had a lot of instructions from our superiors, guidance or parents. Somehow, Somehow, we mistook these disciplines are wickedness or suffering us. We even feel that we are being maltreated because these things we are being told to do and know what we have in mind. When don't do things according to the instructions we get punished at end, we tend to develop this act of hatred on the person. These are things we did why we are still a child. But this discipline are what shape us today to what we are.
I always think about how my life would have been without these disciplines I receive from my parents. While growing up, as the first daughter, so I had two elder Brothers already, but one of my elder brother was around and the other was not around, so I actually grew up with one the person that is my immediate elder. The order to of my siblings are men so I had this mixture of both man and a woman display.
My dad will always call me to tell me Mavis!! you are not a man you are a woman. Because everywhere you see men especially my brothers you will definitely see me around the corner or if not there. A lot of time I was punished for this attitude of behaving like a guy. One day I mistakenly stay out late with my brothers and when we return home I noticed my dad intentionally did not punish others but punish me alone, that sent a message to my brain, for real I'm in this alone.
I change many things that I used to do, then start becoming closer to my mother, that was the time I learned how to cook and other necessary things a woman should do. So when I always think about the past behaviors of mine and the current place I found myself. One thing will be ringing in my ear, had it pain I didn't listen to my parents what would have become of me character and behavior wise. The discipline will receive from our guidance or parents that is not maltreating will always keep us a better tomorrow.
The discipline from my dad especially is top notch. Yes I was saying it as maltreating or not allowing me to express myself or have my peace as her daughter, I was not seeing that which he is looking at... I was just concerned about the current time without knowing what the real world is all about. It was as the result of the discipline I received from my parents that shaped me this way, I can beat my chest to say that many use my lifestyle to give examples to their kid and I'm happy that I listened to my parents...
