Y am i writing an entry of that topic all of a sudden when i finally updated my blog again? Caused that is a hot topic my aunties were talking about lately. Y would they talk about this topic? Because of one of my cousin. I'll gave some background info like what i usually did.

My cousin, also xia, graduated from poly last year with a diploma, n she started work for quite a few months already. Heard from my mum n aunties, she did not give any money to her parents. She's the oldest in the family too. Infilial? Nah.. the main focus is not here. Instead of giving money, she took money from her parents when she don't have enough to spend. Not only that, she gave tithe every month to her church. Imagine what a parent would think when they knew that their daughter is giving money to church, but not to them.... i guess it's sad. After arriving at this topic, they started to grill me about tithe. They asked whether i gave that, n whether i gave money to my parents. I told them i did give money to my parent, n i only gave offering for the moment as i'm just doing part time now. I added that i intended to give my godma money too, but mum said my godma won't accept the money, so i might as well get her a gift on her bday, so i intended to do that. She's glad to hear that.

So... should religion comes first on top of any other thing? Can some religious people give me some opinions n views? My godma then added, " before u give tithe, u should think about whether u have enough to give to ya parents. Furthermore, parents are the one that feed u and give u education. Does God provide u with food n education n shelter? Not only that, before u give tithe, u should think whether u have enough to spend after giving ya parents some money. I'm not saying that u should not give tithe, but u should give the amount u could afford instead of giving 10%." I knew i should not think the way they think it as... but i cant help wondering at times. I guess i MUST not get confused by others word. I need to read the bible~! God helps me grow spiritually.. N that is what my parents cant do. Argh~.. I need to find more stuff to convince myself of that. I have weak roots for Christianity, so i might stray off very soon. That is a real bad news.

To end off.... Wanna wish those 'A' lvl grad who is taking their result on Friday, "Good Luck"~! I have God with me.. so i guess i'll just pray more to calm my nerve.Hee~. Tata~!
