a little of everyday

tuition. i never had it, and never believed in it. so now it is ironic that i am giving it. yet, it serves as a means to an end. a better end for me. at least i believe it to be that way. but still it mocks me sometimes. especially when you see the other person in agony, having to sit through another two hours of boredom with someone he barely knows, simply because his mother planned it for him. i thank my mother for not being that kind of a parent. however, some people seem genuinely assured with a tuition facilitator. i do not know when it has come to that, but i feel sorry for them. that assurance they have, it is like a ampulet or charm that your granny gives you in the hope of you holding on to it and thus receive supernatural help. has it evolved into a modern-day collective representation, where you go around asking people if they have engaged a tuition facilitator for their child, and that it is the only way to secure the child's grade? they fail to see that the ultimate end still lies in the control of the child, their child. that we can bring a horse to the water but we can never make them drink. so what then if the child fails to reach expectations? where does the blame go? still someone's got to fill the position. and i'm not complaining.
