Our parents are not our parents
They are the guardian life has given us
We came through them but not from them
They may give us their love but not their thoughts
For we have our own thoughts
They may house our bodies but not our souls
For our souls dwell in the house of the future
Which they cannot visit, not even in their dreams
They want us to be like them
At times makes us do what they dream of not knowing we are pursuing their dreams not ours
And if eventually we abandon their dreams to pursue ours
It becomes everybody ‘s waste
We should obey our parents and it is their duty to listen to us.
For that is the reason
They sent us to school
To learn how to think for ourselves.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
