DEAR DIARY ;
Show a little love, a little kindness and the world gets better!
Yesterday night I learn something..from my dad. Come to think of it, I think I've already learn a lot from him. Haha! Anyway, we were out to buy iron board when we saw this blind lady selling tissues along the corner. I've been observing her for quite a while realizing that nobody actually really stops to show kindness.
But just as I wanted to ask Dad for a dollar, he came over to me handing me two bucks to purchase tissues from the lady before making his way to the busker at the MRT station.
Although Dad may not be as educated as the people who are streaming down from the escalators of the MRT deck in suits or office wear, he is much more richer and smarter than anyone of them. & the reason is simply because he appreciates life and emotions. He feels for the people around him and take pity for the unfortunate.
Which makes me really wonder - What are we actually doing? Why are we often so busy that we often overlook certain small details in our life or pass by them without stopping. Sometimes, its these
from the heart gestures that really makes things better.. not the material stuff that we desire.
I encourage you , everyone of you..to stop the next time you see them and even if you don't have a dime for them, mutter a word of prayer of them and thank God he blessed you so much.
