Jona is slowly entering the next stage of life, puberty. ๐
He sees things and situations more clearly, often through, so that he can be upset and feels very annoyed, especially when he is treated like a little child. He also tries to defend his thoughts or discuss the contradiction in adults. And not seldom, he actually has the point, autch.๐ and then, this understanding came to my mind, and I could tell him, give him my wisdom.
“…you know, if we all could be truly self-centered, not self-ish but aware of own self-mind, then there is immediately the selfless understanding toward others. Because one is so aware of oneself, we can easily apply this awareness to be aware of others and understand them. But we are not aware of ourselves, so we react in selfish way under circumstances. Why do you think I am fanatic to training martial arts. Because it builds my awareness and it should be trained at every moment, for any moment. I don’t train to be good at some skills or be capable of some capabilities. No. I train to be aware of myself so I can understand and take care of other people. It’s not for myself, but more for others, us altogether.”
I was pretty proud of him as he nodded slowly for himself. Again, I was lucky enough to do my task. ๐
