No Lies, They Live Rightful


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.
