This is a wonderful story. I am brought up being the only one among my siblings to have to do household chores. I felt bullied and fooled. But that natural instinct to get shoes and items at home in proper places became a challenge when I lived overseas. I was in a boarding school and the children were tough to manage. They were a mess, but one of the older student said to me "patience ya Norlisa, they are still very young..."

While i thought discipline and being tidy should be taught and trained while they are young, the generation moved into savoring the time enjoying the presence of who we have at the moment rather than the trivial matter of having things spick and span. I learned being messy at times is okay.
