touched...

yesterday was the day i actually realized.. how blessed i actually am..

was having dinner yesterday at the admin block alone.. cause it was a very late dinner.. at 930pm.. after a meeting.. was having a chat with one of the workers of the cafeteria.. and i learnt to appreciate life... that guy.. his story touched me.. he dropped out of school after finishing his standard 6.. he practically had no choice.. he had to support his family.. he helped them at rubber tapping.. at the mere age of 12.. tried the military at 20.. gave up in half a month.. he told me that he had to do whatever job that comes in the way.. whether it was cleaning plates or becoming a waiter.. he had to take it all to support his family.. now at the age of 28.. he is gonna try the military again.. wat really impacted me most was his attitude.. towards his friends who are studying.. he even helps those studying in uni financially.. yes.. whenever he is able to.. one time, his friend who was persuing medical studies gave up because his family was sick.. this guy.. he cried... this guy had a heart.. even through his own financial difficulty he would give to help others..

well.. this is only one case.. there are many out there who are like this guy.. but.. if we can't help them.. we might as well just appreciate what we have now.. if u are a student, try your best to be one.. his last advice to me before he left was to study hard and give it my best.. appreciate the privilege i have.. because many don't..

he moved my heart totally.. and i am constantly keeping him in my prayers that one day he will have an easier life.. this guy is an example of being poor materially but yet rich in heart.. I wish him all the best.. and hope he passes his military trial period.. God bless ya.. =)
