PERSONAL NARRATIVES, MOMMY TIPS, AND THRILLING DISCOVERIES TO MAKE DAILY LIFE THE HAPPIEST

Lesson from Aesop’s Fable The Bee-Keeper

July 26, 2019 · 5 Comments

Ungrateful people complain about one thing you haven't done for them instead of being grateful for the thousands of things you have done for them.

The Story of the Bee-Keeper

 

Lesson from Aesop's Fable's The Bee-Keeper

Lesson from Aesop’s Fable’s The Bee-Keeper

The Story of the Beverly Hills Brat

We read the story of the bee-keeper. Then I remember the video I saw about a spoiled 15-year-old girl who turned to Dr. Phil for help. Dr. Phil is an American talk show created by Oprah Winfrey and the host Phil McGraw. The show tackles compelling stories about real people dealing with problems on child abuse, depression, domestic violence, racism, substance abuse, and other issues prevalent in today’s society.

The young lass went to Dr. Phil to “get straight with her mum.” Her mother cut her allowance from $US5000 (PHP 250,000) a month to $US1000 (PHP 50,000), and she can’t live with only $US1000 a month. She also demanded that she “needs” a brand new Mercedes-Benz G class sports car for her 16th birthday. The car is about $US2M (PHP 100,000,000).

The Beverly Hills brat said that she grew up on a certain lifestyle and her parent just can’t take that away from her that abruptly.

The talk show host and psychologist Dr. Phil advised the mother to give more love and less cash to the daughter. And for the daughter, the host told the young lady to get a job in the real world. This prompted the lass to cry, claiming more love is just too late. Further, getting a job is “too much hard work.”

The Lesson from the Two Stories

The teen’s reaction to the decision of her parent is just too disturbing for us. We see an ungrateful brat who wants to get everything her way. But then, we don’t know their full story so we would want to give her the benefit of the doubt.

In every class of society, gratitude is the rarest of all human virtues. ― Wilkie Collins
Click To Tweet

Both the story of the bee-keeper and the young lass show that sometimes, we hit back the people who care for us or at least show concern toward us. They may have done something we disapprove of but that doesn’t mean they deserve our angst or disrespect. Let us be grateful and respectful at all times.  Because collectively, no matter how small or big our act of gratitude and respect to all might be, we still help reshape the foundation of a more accepting and loving society.  We are still positive that time will come the world will be healed of hatred, jealousy, and angst. We just need to start it within our circle and it will eventually spread in all directions, cultures, and races.

.

That's my little man, and seriously, he never tires hugging me any time of the day.  If only I've counted the times he hugs me in a day; perhaps it would be about 30 times or more.  That plenty!
.

Maybe, a hug gives our boy a soothing effect and reassures him of his parent's affection.  He also attempts to communicate a need after giving his mother a hug and kiss, and that is "dede." There are also times he embraces because he just loves to. .

Indeed, every hug has a story to tell, and with  Downy Premium Parfum, we are more confident of receiving and giving the same warm hug.  And its long-lasting fragrance all the more makes hugs more special. .

I love to cook for my family. Special occasion or not, this mother always aims that her boys enjoy mealtime.  And so this coming Christmas, nothing beats the classics like serving our favorite BUKO PANDAN. It's that perfect decadent treat to end our meal on a high note.  Of course, we only use Nestlé All-Purpose Cream, our perfect cooking partner to create only the creamiest buko pandan. .

We have no plans of stopping anytime soonest, unless our two young ones decided to do so.  Our milk has been their primary source of  nutrition when they were still babies.  Now, it continues to help protect our sons against infection and disease.  The calcium and iron in our milk are also more easily absorbed by our two children, giving them the added nutrients they need.  And we are just so grateful that we have a partner in  @vpharmaph for all the MEGA-MALUNGGAY we had and continuously take. More than the healthy dose of natural vitamins like calcium, iron, potassium, and vitamin C we get from each capsule, Mega-Malunggay is proven to be a great galactagogue for lactating moms like me. .

So happy to be part of #VpharmaBrandAmbassadors2020. Excited what 2020 will bring, but we see more breastfeeding still. We also look forward to exploring #VpharmapH 's other quality products.  And we hope you are as excited as we are for 2020.
