A memorable childhood life

One day, I was sitting on a stool paying close attetions to those memorable photographs during my childhood days. I remembered by my parents wouldn't wealthy. As such we have to lived in dilaplidated houses in a small kampong villiage. Beside our house are situated at remoted area of the cemetery. At night it as silence as a ghost town. While in the morninnng our neighbors would required to rear their domestic livestock to the wet market to sell.

And the only member in my family who work and is the sole breadwinner of the family, was my dad. i respected hime alot, because everytime when he went out to work, he would definitely brought delicious for my mother and me . No matters how exhausted he got, he never ignore us. Sometime in the weekends, we will gather together to cheek-chatt. While for them, the main concern was my academic performance in school.

As they don't want me to end out like them, suffering the same fate. They alway said, " son to surivve in this competitie society your have to get a good qualification. " So, i never take their words for granted. To motivate me to scored well, they would show their support by buying a small gifts for me.

While the most memorable thing was when i finally graduate at the age of 18, they came to congratualted me and we took photos together. Then, we have an appertising meal in a thai cusine restuarant at the following day. Now that i am literate and started out my carreer working as a manager in bukit butok bussiness district. Life in the garden-city of singapore were affluent, and i trend to earn more salary.

Though they are now old already, their past contribution and care to me is certainly unforgetable. I show the filial piety to reciprocate the kindness to them, by buying tonic and giving a few 100 bucks for them as allowance. And we will sat together in the living-room for a reunion dinner. A year later , they fall ill and eventually passed away. That had devastated me alot and very often i would cover myself in the blanket and shedd tear. But I knew they won't wanted to see me get so sadden like this.
