The Beauty of Different
For authentic expression, get your free daily lessons from Febulove, a project of Eros Coaching.
Description:
What if you had a superpower? Because you just might. In a society where we are constantly bombarded with messages on how to think, how to feel, and how to look, it can be very easy to fall into the mindset that we are not enough, that we somehow fail as individuals. The truth is that those aspects of ourselves that make us individuals are actually the sources of our own beauty. Enter The Beauty of Different, a chronicle of beautiful imagery and portraiture which both provoke and tell a story, combined with written observations and essays on the ways in which we find people who display individuality and uniqueness intriguing, even as we all collectively strive to be more like these people every day. Divided into chapters focused on the many ways individuality or uniqueness can manifest itself, the book includes insightful commentary, and features both written and visual portraits of individuals who embody the major characteristics described in each chapter. These are ordinary people, who are really actually extraordinary -- and therefore immensely beautiful as a result.
This book is designed to connect, inspire and encourage you to reconsider those attributes that make you unique, and reframe them as characteristics of distinction -- maybe even your superpowers.
Is everyone really beautiful?

Today’s Parent: Account of a Tuition Survivor
This piece first appeared on The Online Citizen. I had tuition from when I was in Primary One until Secondary Four. My younger sister started from when she was Kindergarten Two. She started early because she wouldn't leave me alone during my tuition lessons – insisting on playing with me, talking with me, peeping on me – she felt left out.
I, on the other hand, hated being forced to take supplementary lessons I did not need. After a succession of tutors who quit – one of whom pinched me – I realised that my mother was going to continue forcing tuition down my throat. I eventually settled on the one I thought was the nicest. This did not reduce my continued distaste for tuition through the years.
Same old stuff – I was made to rehash the same materials already covered in school. It was as if there was a belief that reiteration would, by some miracle, make sure I would reproduce the textbook word for word during examinations.
Speeding ahead – With my tutor, we went through the lessons which would be later covered in school. Initially, there was the novelty of already knowing everything that the teacher was going to say. With time – the thrill gone, I gave myself permission to zone out/shut down/daydream during class itself.
Extra homework – Having been told repeatedly that I was 'bad' for not doing my tuition assignments, I brought them to school and had to do them during recess. There was simply too much – besides attending classes, doing my school homework, extra-curricular activities and tuition assignments.
At the ripe old age of eight (when I was in Primary Three), I asked my tutor what my life would be like if I dropped out of school. She asked me why I wanted to do so. I confided in her that I was so bored with life and with school that I could kill myself.
I didn't know this then. Tuition killed my joy for learning. I was uninspired, unmotivated and bored out of my mind.
I didn't want tuition. I didn't even need tuition.
I was the child. And of course, I didn't know what was good for me.
My mother, of course, took all the credit for my academic achievements. She thinks if not for the tuition during my foundational years, I would not be who I am today.
I know better. I know I would have had a much happier childhood, probably had a better attitude at school, and even paid better attention when I was actually in class. I might even have applied myself more fully in every task I was given.
Once I asked my mother, "What would it take for me to learn what I need to know as an adult?" Her reply: "Everything you need to learn is in your textbooks." I believed her. I loved reading. Yet, in my naive mind, I thought everything that was outside of my school textbooks was frivolous. So any other reading materials, including storybooks and newspapers, were secondary – even a waste of precious time.
After all, if they were truly important, they would already be in the textbooks. The lessons in the textbooks must be important, since I had to cover the same ground repeatedly.
It wasn't until much later that I realised that the world does not revolve around textbooks. There was much – in fact a whole lot – that one textbook could not possibly cover. My world opened up when I entered Polytechnic and was encouraged to ask questions, challenge facts, and formulate my own, unique, thoughts. It was the dawn of a new era for me.
I regret not being more curious about the world outside of textbooks. I regret not reading more. I regret being a 'good' girl – which meant doing the same English, Chinese, Mathematic, and Science exercises presented in slightly different arrangements, over and over.

Parents, rather than follow what your relatives, friends, and neighbours do, blindly, ask yourself the following questions:
- Does my child need it? Tuition is meant to be supplementary and for weaker students who do need the support. If your children are able to cope on their own, why force tuition upon them?
- Does my child enjoy it? If there comes a point when if your child is gloomy, depressed and hating those lessons, the price you pay might well be their joy for life and learning.
- Does my child have time to cultivate their own, true interests? It seems like common sense, but many children never learn to discern what they really want from what others (including their parents or peer group) want. Each child will have their own hobbies, pastimes and pursuits. Allocate opportunities for your child to be nurtured in the way they choose; it could be time to read, or by attending some form of enrichment lessons, from chess, ballet, sport, to piano and the like. The soul always needs to be nourished.
- Don't lie to your children to get them to do what you want them to do. Being manipulative will only come back and bite you in the end.
- Honour their truth: If they truly hate something, it manifests in more ways than one. Pay attention.
- Give them space. This includes time to play and to be a child.

Description:
Dr. Brené Brown is a researcher professor at the University of Houston, Graduate College of Social Work, where she has spent the past ten years studying a concept that she calls Wholeheartedness, posing the questions: How do we engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness? How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection that we need to embrace our imperfections and to recognize that we are enough -- that we are worthy of love, belonging and joy? Brené is the author of I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't): Telling the Truth About Perfectionism, Inadequacy, and Power (2007) and the forthcoming books, The Gifts of Imperfection (2010) and Wholehearted: Spiritual Adventures in Falling Apart, Growing Up, and Finding Joy ( 2011).

The Truth Shall set us Free: Teen Talking Circles
Members of the Girl's Talking Circle, Guy's Talking Circle and GenderTalks Circle on Bainbridge Island tell why Teen Talking Circles is so important to them.
I came across the Teen Talking Circles many years ago. You can call it by any name but essentially this is talk therapy for the youth - listening, really listening, and allowing them to talk, have a voice, and also learn how to talk. Extremely valuable. I do wish for some form of Teen Talking Circles to be in Singapore. I certainly know that while growing up, I wish I was heard. All of us did, and probably still do.
