I agree and at times, I’m consciously trying to enjoy things now rather than saving for the future, as you never really know what’s in for your future.

A Little Princess

Read “A Little Princess” a 1904 children’s novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett and thought it’s pretty good!

“Sara Crewe is brought over from India by her father to join a girls’ school in London, but when she is suddenly thrown into poverty, she must keep hold of her vivid imagination and kind heart to prove to those who ill-treat her she is still a ‘little princess’.”

When facing mean people like Ms Minchin, Sara remained polite and calm! I love this sensible child who’s truly a princess not merely in wealth but in spirit. Here’s my favourite quote from the her, “When you will not fly into a passion people know you are stronger than they are, because you are strong enough to hold in your rage, and they are not, and they say stupid things they wish they hadn’t said afterward. There’s nothing so strong as rage, except what makes you hold it in – that’s stronger. It’s a good thing not to answer your enemies.”

I need to learn from Sara. To learn to control my rage and to not say stupid things that I wish I hadn’t said.
