A Kind Soul

 

Blk 130 Jurong East (Jurong Gateway Road)

Met another kind soul on Saturday.  Mum and I went to Jurong East Blk 130, Jurong Gateway Road.  Mum need to go Radiologic Clinic for X-ray.  The clinic was going to close at 1pm, so we were rushing before it closed.  

Johnny dropped us at the car park and then we need to walk to the Radiologic Clinic.  As we were walking, we were not sure if we were heading towards the right direction.  I asked a passerby, a lady, who was so kind.  She actually walked with us, told us to follow her.  She could have just tell us the direction, but she offered to bring us there.  So nice of her.  

Mum is a kind hearted woman.  She will meet kind people to help her.  However yesterday on the bus, nobody volunteer to give up seat to her.  The bus was rather crowded and we had to stand.  She was not given a seat when we were taking the bus.

I hope that there will be more kind hearted people around in Singapore to help elderly people like mum.

Good Samaritans

 

Photograph showing the 'red packet' or Selamat Hari Raya ang bao in my bicycle basket

Went to work one day on the 5 June 2021.  I went to pick up food and when I returned, I still never noticed anything in the basket.  It was only after I reached the customer's place, when I was taking the food, I discovered a brown packet.  I thought someone had thrown in litter into my basket.  So I went to deliver the food.  After I came back, I looked at the brown packet.  It wrote 'Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri'.  I took it up and saw something purple.  It was a $2 note inside.  Had someone given me a red packet?

I went working for quite sometimes now, and people who give tips are few.  So far I had only encounter one case of a condominium customer who gave me $2 tip, and another case of HDB customer gave me $2.40.  Then a few cases of 'keep the change' for a few cents of change.  

Sometimes the customer will send message to say no hurry, stay safe.  So there are quite a number of kind people around.  Working in this line is very tiring and legs will have blister also.   But its just so nice to see kind people around.

Another case of kind people is at Woodlands bus interchange.  I was pulling the trolley.  Luckily there were lifts, otherwise I had to carry the trolley all the way up the stairs.  A woman saw me walking towards the lift and she waited patiently for me at the lift.  Then she pressed the lift door opened, she was so patient.  In the lift, there was another man.  When the lift door opened, he pressed the door opened and waited for everyone to go out.  This is definitely a gracious society.
