My neighbor
is in her 70s. I saw her taking her mails from her mailbox at 5.30 in the
morning. Waking up early is adapted in people’s lives in this country.
TVs in the
houses, closed almost all time.
Making noise
after 10.00 pm is forbidden.
Shopping
centers are closed around 6pm.
You can’t
any children after 5pm outside. Children generally sleep until 8pm.
You can see
people starting from 6am, going to school or work.
Babies don’t
cry often. You can’t see a parent getting mad at their children, also children
turning mad their parents.
We were
invited to a clown house when we first came here. Tens of clowns made shows and
collected donations. After the show, one of the clowns wanted to distribute the
bananas weren’t sold. But none of the kids in the clown house were willing to
eat bananas. My children were extremely happy to have free bananas, although they
are eating bananas every day. They filled their hands with bananas. My little
son cried for another banana, holding one in his hand. My daughter wanted more
bananas, trying to finish the one in her hand…
Children
also have to obey the rules in this country. Waiting on the line for swing, or insisting
to get something they shouldn’t, mothers never capitulate. Children organize
the things they disorganized with their mothers and leave as they found.
One of the
days we went to gym, one of the older kids bothered my daughter and pinched her
arm. My daughter came to my crying, the kid’s mother also came to say sorry.
She made his son apologize too.
These people
makes great effort to repair a mistake. They don’t use round responds and live
a rightful life. They wake up early and sleep early, using the outer external
factors as tools not targets.
And, the
most important part for me: They never highlight the religion. They never lie.
