Be a Broccoli!
This is my new broccoli theory. We should strive to be like a broccoli!
What vegetable is more superior to a broccoli?
Broccoli's strengths....
1) It's strong and sturdy. Only through lots of boiling will it soften.
Implication: We can undergo all kinds of trials and tribulations. Not easily defeated.
2) It has mulitple florets.
Implication: We are resourceful and capable enough to multi-task. We can handle all the important to nitty-gritty details necessary in life and at work.
3) It's nutritious.
Implication: We can touch and improve the lives of others, be it in character-moulding of our students, imparting knowledge, guiding, lending a helping hand, listening ear, shoulder to lean on, spending time with someone who needs it, showing love, being a silly clown to bring laughter to others, a pat on the back, or even just a smile of encouragement. And so on and so forth...
4) It's pretty.
Implication: This point can be quite frivolous lah, but I'll try to smoke. We need to be presentable and elude a sense of respectability. I am afterall gonna be a teacher rite?! =)
Blah blah blah. But I cun think of any other vegetable which is on par with dear broccoli. =)
Not even its cousin - cauliflower. It just PALES in comparison!
Any challenges? Heh.
