IT'S BEAUTIFUL DAY


A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: “I’m blind, please help.” There were few coins in the hat.


A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.


Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked. “Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?”


The man said, “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.”


I wrote: “Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it.”


Both sign told peple that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people that they were so lucky that they were not blind.


Moral of the story: Be thankful for what you have. Enjoy your day with a heart of gratitude.

THIS IS 'FAIR'

I bought a magazine last few days, and found that the magazine offer the previous publication by selling it with a cheaper price. Oh yeah I'm interested to have the previous publication I think, just fill in the form, name, address, pay by using bank draft or money order, then the company will sent the magazine to our mailing address. But I was surprise to see this..
.

Everything, I repeat. EVERYTHING in Sabah is more expensive than Peninsular. Why? As always been told, it's because of the price for 'everything' in Sabah has included the transportation fee. hmm.. Now, from the above schedule I'd captured from the said magazine, PRICE OF THE BOOK are DIFFERENT, and then it plus DIFFERENT DELIVERY CHARGES! What the hell?! I can accept and understand the delivery charge, Sabah is farer but why the original price for the magazine still have differences? It should be same price as Peninsular because delivery been charged differently!

I'm not going to order then. I just really feel like to complaint this to the related authority. This is so unfair and poor Sabah & Sarawak been taken advantage like this. *&^%$#@!!

WORKING HARD

This photo not taken by me, I'd copied it from fb. Somehow, just share it with you here.


This guy is a porter at Mount Kinabalu. He and few of the group members doing this job since long time ago. They bring thing such as this big and heavy tank from flat land to the middle top of the mountain everyday; while normal people climb the mountain once, come back home flat on the bed and can't walk for almost one week. We've been so pampered.
.
I actually feel touch with this guy and this photo. Just look at people like them, they are so hardworking and look for money in very right way. Seems like no "tired" or "hardship" word in their dictionary. They are loyal and willing to work under this condition of job for a very long time. Of course we don't know how much they'd been paid with this kind of job, may be high salary we don't know but.. I just don't know how to explain.. I just can say that most of us had been pampered and made us has a bad habit where we want everything in comfort.
.
Gosh I just feel like I really want to help this kind of people. They work so hard.
