Current term of RWM ended last Saturday. I am kinda disappointed with myself because I missed 3 sessions. And, I didn't manage to convert my mischievous kid attached and bring him to the light side. Nonetheless, I was really touched when they shook our hands to thank us. I guess, it is this little gestures that reminds me not to feel cynical and continue volunteering.

During the last session, I decided to try my fellow volunteer, C, to coach my attached kid, T. I wanted to find out if he could behave differently with a male volunteer. So, I took another kid, A. After completing our work, we went on to make a clock. I asked him if he wanted to draw on the clock face. And, he wanted to draw all the superheroes. I chuckled at his ambitiousness. Despite that, I encouraged him to continue by asking what he could start with.

He said: "I want to draw James Bond."

This time, I couldn't help but laughed out loud. I repeated after him: "James Bond? You know how to draw?" I was doubting that he could do it. I was baffled when I saw what he drew. Look at the picture below, can you guess which is the James Bond he drew?

It is the stickman with a gun. When he told me about drawing James Bond, I was imagining how he could draw a portrait drawing. I didn't expect things to be so simple. I guess, adults always make things complex. Something can be simple, but we choose to use so much of our senses, reasons and desires to look at it.

However, we are living in a complex society. If we fail to analyze things complexly, we will lose out. I guess, a balance mentality is the best. Use our adult mentality to look at things. If all things fail, use our kid mentality to forget about things.

Thanks to A for reminding me not to lose my childish innocence.

P.S: I adore the Spiderman !!
