Experience: The Best Teacher

Assalamualaikum and Greetings

U Love Me U Love Me Not

The sequel I promised.

The reaction I noticed . . .

A day before Ahmad Iman Iskandar was scheduled to be discharged, I popped a simple question to his parents Mazlyn and Rashidi. That was while I was having a simple conversation with both of them in room 6H at PCMC. The couple looked very pleased with the outcome of the whole episode of having been blessed with a handsome kid, AII. Yes, Mazlyn and Rashidi were very happy when their son was born safe and complete. Praise be to The Almighty.










Well back to the simple question that I put forth to the couple:
"How do both of you feel right now?"
"Happy" was their one word answer.
"Do you love AII?"
There was no clearly heard response but I noticed a strong nod of the heads. The couple were just lost for words. Yes, I noticed they really adored and love Ahmad Iman Iskandar, their newly born son.







They looked blankly at me. They must be wondering why I asked such questions. I let them think for a short while. When they still looked at me I guessed it was time for me to explain.

"Both of you have answered my questions right?" I said.
"Both of you said you are happy with AII's Arrival. Both of you definitely love him, OK?"
"Well, that was exactly the way your parents felt too when you arrived. And, similarly there is no question of them not loving you. Even if they just did not show any sign of it . . . Their actions and body language will tell . . . "
"Just like the nods of your heads!"

Mazlyn and Rashidi smiled and looked at each other.

And . . . I added a reminder, " All reasonable and responsible parents will feel the way you felt. Please keep that in mind."




We went on chatting on other topics after that. Sure enough . . . I noticed . . . Experience is the best teacher!
