To be an adult like that

when i was a child, my parents told me you should be an honest girl in the future. i confused about their words. because i know most of friends’ parents told them to be high-marked students. and they would got good jobs in the future. why am i different from others? isn’t to be a high-marked student more important than anything else?

when i was older, the comparison is much greater that ever before. little by little, i have been understanding that my parents are really wisdom. they don’t only think about my childhood, my teenager years but also my adult years. to be an adult, a good job is only one part of my life, and the most important part is how to be a person—that what i meant a person should be. if i was a high-marked student, i would be a good job owner. i could make more money; i could dress better, and others whatever friends or relatives would be proud of me. but what about the inside? maybe i don’t care it any more. besides i could make money, what can i do for the society, the country, or other else?

in my opinion, to be a good person for the society is much better and more important than to be a good person for money-making. the former is good to more aspects, and the latter is just good for myself. i don’t want to be a person like that.

now i’m 16 years old. i’ve learned more knowledge in the books from my teachers or something else. and i know how to go on my own way of life as well. i know what i want to be and what i will be. i’m confident about myself. that’s must thank my wisdom parents. their attitude makes me become a happy and confident girl.
