Contrasting Fortunes

I've been busy with T3, wasn't really at home the past 3 days and I thought my kids would have believed I was overseas.

Yesterday, after T3 kicked off, I finally had a chance to eat dinner with my kids. I asked Jotham what he did in school. He blew us off in laughter with this candid answer:

"eat play lor, eat play sleep, eat play sleep lor" in typical jo-singlish.

A 3-year old's innocence just sunk a 30-year old's weariness into the ocean.

Comments:
come to think of it, the only difference that we have from Jo's typical day is that we eat work lor, eat work sleep, eat work sleep lor.

Just one word can make such a difference between an adult and a child's life
