A Bullied Girl in Japan
A primary school girl in Japan wrote to the editor of a newspaper.
She wondered if she was truly lucky as she was born as a human being. She thought a human looks like the sliest but the most easy-going animal. So, she wondered if it was truly the greatest thing to be born as a human being.
There is one junior-high school girl in Japan who has been bullied since she entered an intermediate school. So, she finally gave up learning in the same class room with her enemy pupils. She started to learn alone in a medical room of the school. But she made a high score in each test, though she could not join skill practice in a class room with other school boys and girls. She tackled the same test as other students did, but alone in the medical room.
She studied hard even at home. It is because she had an aim to get into a first-rate high school through an entrance examination.
But, she got shocked recently to know that high schools in her prefecture check assessment of test-taking pupils concerning their performance in class rooms in addition to giving them a paper test on a test day. Unfortunately, the junior-high school girl has not joined class-room and group activities, so that assessment of her concerning class-room performance is not so high or at an average at best. Accordingly her chance to get into one of the the best high schools in the prefecture looks very small.
As a consequence, she has become unable to sustain enthusiasm for learning and studying to make a high score in tests.
However, in some other prefectures in Japan, high schools adopt a special method in their examination process to fairly treat those bullied pupils or handicapped children forced to study in their homes or in special places for any reasons. In such a prefecture, the said school girl can be fairly assessed and allowed to study in the high school she wants to enroll in.
Indeed, it can be easy or difficult to live as a human in this world depending on a situation and environment.
And Christ Jesus said to follow Him as a yoke he provides is light.
