Hahahahah what kind of question that I need to answer...It really difficult for me to choose...but if I need to choose maybe I will choose to betray my friends although it this not easy to be done..don't ask me why????I also don't have any ideas..but I strongly disagree to the person who choose to betray their country and family because both of them is so important to us...

If you do that things...then I want to ask you what kind of person you are????

To me my country is important,
but family is the important one to me..friends also important to me..without friends,i think i can't survive in school.ha..In conclusion,this 3 things is important to me..so i can't betray both of it..bcoz when i do that,something bad will happen to me.. its better i die from betray to one of it..so i hope other people's will do so as i do..remember,all is in our hand,so we chose which one the best way to us..

Betrayal.....
If i were to choose to betray my country, family and friends, i would have to apologize to my friends because they would be the person that i'll sacrifice.
Though i am not physically patriotic enough, but deep in my heart I LOVE MALAYSIA so much and i would rather die than humiliating my country.
I would never betray my family because they are my most valuable treasure, nothing that can beat their love to me. No matter what, family comes first AND THAT'S THE FACT.
N to my friends, i am really sorry. It's not that i don't appreciate our friendship but in certain things i believe you would also do and think of the same action as i do.
But no worries, until today i have never betray my friends because i love them so much. I pray to God that non of this BETRAYING thing would ever happen in my life. I just want everyone to live happily without BAD things happen again.

rOSilA said...

it hard to choose to betray all of them...this is because i love them..
if i had to choose between them,i will betray my friends..
although my friends is important to me,but my family and my country is more important...
this is because i can find another friends but i can not find my true family and my beloved country......

country, friend and family is the most important thing to me.
So, I can not choose anyone of them
that need to comment, but if i need to do it.

I maybe choose to betray my friends it is
because sometimes friends are easy to influence

me to do a negative thing............

PATRIOTIC

Patriotism is commonly defined as love of and/or devotion to one's country. The word comes from the Latin patria, and Greek patritha" . However, "patriotism," or the love of one's country, has come to have different meanings over time. Thus, the meaning of patriotism can be highly dependent upon context, geography and philosophy.

Although used in certain vernaculars as a synonym for nationalism, nationalism is not considered an inherent part of patriotism. Among the ancient Greeks, patriotism is comprised of notions concerning language, religious traditions, ethics, law and devotion to the common good, rather than pure identification with a nation-state.Scholar J. Peter Euben writes that for the Greek philosopher Socrates, "patriotism does not require one to agree with everything that his country does and would actually promote analytical questioning in a quest to make the country the best it possibly can be."

During the 18th century Age of Enlightenment, the notion of patriotism continues to be separate from the notion of nationalism. Instead, patriotism is defined as devotion to humanity and beneficence. For example, providing charity, criticizing slavery, and denouncing excessive penal laws is considered patriotic. n both ancient and modern visions of patriotism, individual responsibility to fellow citizens is an inherent component of patriotism.

Many contemporary notions of patriotism are influenced by 19th century ideas about nationalism. During the 19th century, "being patriotic" becomes increasingly conflated with nationalism, and even jingoism. However, some notions of contemporary patriotism reject nationalism in favor of a more classic version of the idea of patriotism which includes social responsibility.

Thats Life
by MaggieMom

I was blessed with three children
loving and warm
life got better
when each one was born

They filled my life
with love and joy
my two lovely girls
and my darling boy

They captured my heart
right from the start.

From their wee little faces
to the tips of their toes
a glorious love
only a mother knows

The first tooth
the first crawl
the first step
the first fall

Yes my darlings
I was there for it all.

The barbie dolls
and little toy cars
the games you learned to play
the lovely cards and flowers
received on Mothers Day

The little spats and bruises
the tears and laughter too
learning your ABC's
and your first day at school

Yes my darlings
I was there for you.

Your first car
your first date
your first job
and more

Yes my darlings
I've been through it all.

Precious memories of yesteryear
are treasures that we all hold dear
there were tears of joy
and tears of pain
but look at all
that I have gained

Three wonderful children
now fully grown
raising families
of their own

Still giving me
love and joy
a grandma of three girls
and three boys.

So as you travel
down the path of life
with your husbands
and your wife

I pray that God bless all of you
and you'll have precious memories too

I wish you good health
and much happiness
lots of joy and tenderness

But most of all
I wish you love.
