Roles and How We Play Them
28 Mayl 2006




by Marie Curling

Whenever I'm disappointed with my spot in life, I stop and think about little Jamie Scott. Jamie was trying out for a part in a school play. Her mother told me that she had her heart set on being in it, though she feared she would not be chosen. On the day the parts were announced, I went with her to collect her after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitment. "Guess what, Mum," she shouted, and then said those words that remain a lesson to me: "I'v been chosen to clap and cheer."

Moral: Every part and role in life is important

Thoughts to ponder on:

As you can see from the story, little Jamie wasn't chosen to take part in the actual drama itself. But she is a part of the audience(clap and cheer). Jamie is only a little child , yet she can see the greatness and importance of every single role in life. We should understand that everyone around you, including yourself, plays a role in the society. Whether these roles are huge(minister, manager, 9-A1 student) or small(clerk, average student), they all play a part in lifes of different person.

Why don't you turn around, and think about yourself--How you play an important role of other's life?

How you makes the difference for your friends?

And how does all the friends around you play a part of your life? Everyone around you is special to you, don't neglect them.

And you are special to them too, don't lose them.
