I want to thank my father, the greatest
father in the world. He taught me many things about life.
Good children do not go to the head
teacher's office When I was in Grade Nine, I was sent to the head teacher's
office. We were in a math class and I knew everything already, so I felt boring
in that class. And I decided to put a pen into my nostril (鼻孔) for fun. That made
my classmates laugh in class. However, the teacher did not laugh.
The teacher shouted, "Stop doing like
that!" and then went to write something on the blackboar. I then put the
pens into one nostril and one ear. Once again, the students laughed. Then my
teacher took me to the head teacher's office. The only problem was that my
father was the head teacher.
He had a short talk with me before sending
me back to class. From those words I knew he was sad with me. That was not what
I wanted.
Ruling by love
My father is well loved by everyone who
knows him in my hometown. So he was made leader in myhometown, but he leads not
out of power, but out of kindness and love.
