On the 2nd nite of camp,we asked the convent girls to write down their regrets on a piece of paper.
some of them came from broken families, complicated backgrounds and some are torn between siblings rivalry...jealousy...
they sobbed as they pen down their thoughts.
after they had done that,they were asked to take the step forward to knee around cross, surrounded by tealights.they had to say a prayer...a few of us prayed over them as they knelt there.
eventually the parents were led to the room.they hugged their children from behind.the girls passed their letters to their parents.both parties were so deeply touched & filled with love,tears jus rolled down continuously.
a few of us affirmed the girls whose parents weren't here that they are loved by huggin them .they were sobbin as they see other girls being hugged by their parents.
i almost cried as i hugged them.it reminded me of the very same session i had at my sec 2 camp.i didn't nderstand why my parents had to be at the camp.i ididn't want them to be there so i told my parents they need not come.i eventually felt the pain when i saw my fellow frens sharin tears of joy & pain with their parents.how i wished i could turn back time and share those moments with my parents.how i wished i had the chance to pass the letter to my parents and tell them my regrets...how i wish i could go thro' that session...
regrets....
