Get it Right

2 days ago, i watched Glee season 2. There is a song, titled Get It Right.
here is the lyrics

 
What have I done? I wish I could
Away from this ship goin' under
Just tryin' to help, hurt everyone
Now I feel the weight of the world is
On my shoulders

What can you do when your good isn't good enough?
When all that you touch tumbles down?
'Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many it times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me?
To get it right

Can I start again with my faith shaken?
'Cause I can't go back and undo this
I just have to stay and face my mistakes
But if I get stronger and wiser
I'll get through this

So I throw up my fist
I will punch in the air
And accept the truth that sometimes life isn't fair
Yeah, I'll send out a wish
Yeah, I'll send up a prayer
And finally, someone will see
How much I care!

looking back at the lyric, sometimes it is true. we just want to help anybody that we care and know. But somehow, when we are thinking that the things we had done are right and good, at the end it become a nightmare that haunt us. (what can we do, when the good isn't good enough? When all that you touch tumbles down? 'Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things) we often feel that right? the more good we think, sometimes its come out worse than what we never imagine. i have faced that a few times... well, it's hard though and sometimes i feel like, what the hell is happening?? i don't mean that way, but all i can do is SILENT.. silent and receive the blame from the people that i had hurt... well that is life.. no problems means we are dead...

i have a story for this example.

There is a family of four. The Father, just bought a brand new car yesterday. The father, promise their children that on Sunday afternoon, he will bring them to the park using the new car. 

the youngest son, very excited about the planning and waiting for the Sunday to come. On sunday morning, the youngest son look at the car, and ask his dad, "daddy, before we go to the park, can i wash the car first?"

the father looking at the watch and see that it is still early in the morning. In his mind, he say "still early in the morning, and we still have time, why not?" and the father answer him "Yes dear, you can do that. but be careful!" and smiling to him. His son smiling and said "thank you , daddy!!"

The youngest son, started to get busy. he is looking for the car wash soap, bucket and fill it water. then he remember that he forget the car washcloth. he is looking at anywhere, and he couldn't find one. Finally, he remembered that his mom used an iron fiber dish wash to clean the dirt on the pan. so he take it, and use it. 

washing, rubbing the car

 He is so happy washing the new car, with all of his strength, he clean the car, use a soap, rub the car... and now its time to hose the car. and when he hose the car......

for his surprise, the car is not as smooth as the first time. it is full of scratch.. he is forget that, the iron fiber only can be used for dish washing only. He is so surprised and afraid, that he barely do anything. 

He pull up his courage, and come to his dad, and slowly and softly say "Dad, i have something to show you.."

"What darling? the car must be very clean now." said the father. 

"Daddy, come with me, i have something to show you.." grabbing his dad hand.

"I know it son. the car must be very clean right now" said the father

"No, you must come with me" pulling his dad and start to cry. 

daddy shocked

The father confuse, then come with him and when he see the car, he can't imagine the car that he bought yesterday looks like a mess... he is shock that he can barely speak. everything come up to his mind. the credit that he just take, the car that only 1 day old, the insurance that most possibly wont cover it, and he is really mad at his son and saying in his mind "why on earth should i let him wash the car!!". He look at his crying son, and he is at the boiling point, and ready to mad at him. Suddenly, he turn his back and walk to his room. Inside, he is crying and praying to God. 

Scratch on the car

God remind him to forgive his son. He is having a good intention, but the way he did it wrong. you have to appreciate the good intention, and teach how to do it. He come out from his room, he look at his crying son, and he hug him. 

Daddy Hug his son

sometimes, we are tend to be like it too.. without knowing the right way, we do it in our own way..
we are tend to work this way "as long as i done, then finished." we don't think about the effect later on (after effect). we must remember, once we hurt people, it is like you nail on the wall, when you pull it out, the nail are gone, but the hole still there. yes, he or she might forgive you, but the hurt will still there, and only time can heal it.

nobody is perfect, and nobody will be right 100%, because if he/she is, then he/she must be God.

so, the point of this post is
1. we have to think twice and be careful before we do something
2. Do remember the right way. right intention without right attitude/right way = wrong

Have a blessed day, and enjoy the song :D
