Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind.

i got a zero for my social studies letter as apparently i was not 'taking my work seriously' hahahahahahha here's it: (we were supposed to write a letter about someone joining the tamil tigers cos of the sinhalese conflict and telling the family about it)
Dearest Ma,
I don't know how to tell you this. I am a Tiger. No, not the animal. You should not worry about my Tigerhood, I have joined the power force of the Tamil Tigers. It is fun here, Ma. Yesterday, we blow up train. Today, we blow up house. Tomorrow, Sir say we blow up zoo. I am very sad about that, Ma, I like animals. Sir also tell us everyday we must blow up places where people are. So I suggest, we blow up toilet in mall.
Ma, I am having the time of my life here. It has always been my dream to blow things up. Ma, I hope you are not minding me being a Tiger. I am proud of it, and my buddies and I, we made a Tigerhood Club last night. Sir has been telling me that the Sinhalese say I am stupid. Not true! They lie, so I blow them up. Sorry Ma, I hope I did not offend you. Or offend the gods. But to let me continue, I think that my Tigerhood has been growing, Sir now calls me his friend!
I have also made a friend, he is my buddy in the Tigerhood Club. His name is Vethoo and we blew up toilet in here for practice. Ma, I miss your dhals and curries, down here I found worm in soup, you say do not waste food, worm look like food so I eat. It was funny. You know Ma, I miss you too. And Vethoo says hi! He is also saying I do not understand why I am a Tiger, but I remember my other dream to be like an animal. I have to go drink wormsoup now, and do not worry I will not blow up the wormhouse up too.
Your loving son,
Vindaloo
