Are our kids matured? ( A senryu)

Tolerant patience,

the ‘grown-up’ demeanour of

unchildish children

This senryu reflects how some children mature at different ages. Some earlier in life and some later, which some adults, never seem to!

Quotes:-
1. “Youth ends when egotism does; maturity begins

when one lives for others.” ― Hermann Hesse, Gertrude

2. “Maturity is when your world opens up and you realize that you are not
the center of it.” - M.J. Croan

Terjemahan Google ke bahasa melayu Adakah anak-anak anda telah matang?

Adakah anak-anak kita sudah matang?

Kesabaran yang bertoleransi,
sikap ‘dewasa’ kanak-kanak
yang tidak bersikap kanak-kanak

Senyru ini menggambarkan bagaimana beberapa kanak-kanak matang pada usia yang berbeza. Dan ada juga dewasa yang tidak matang-matang langsung

谷歌翻译成中文- 你的孩子成熟了吗?

宽容的耐心,
的“成年”举止
幼稚的孩子

这句Hai句反映了一些孩子在不同年龄时的成熟情况。有些成年人似乎永远不会成熟!

    Much truth in those words and quotes. We have a 78 year old president that embodies those words and quotes, of older but certainly not maturer.

    1. Lol! His ears must be itching, the way many are criticing him! He does stir up our economy here with the tariff issue. Of which I don’t quite understand. My life carries on!
