Recently I had completely changed my views about life after a talk with one of my friends. He told me despite being
31 , he was happy and
32 that it was because of something he saw in Thailand.
A few years ago he was
33 feeling sad and was touring Thailand. He said right in front of his very eyes, he saw a mother
34 her child's right hand with a knife. The helpless
35 in the mother's eyes and the scream of the 36 four-year-old child still remained in his mind.
The
37 mother made the child handicapped (disabled)
38 he could go out on the streets to beg.
39 by the scene, he dropped a small piece of bread he was eating.
And almost at once, several children
40 around this small piece of bread covered with sand,
41 bits from one another. It was the
42 reaction of hunger. He then went to the nearest bakery and bought every single loaf of bread.
43 he gave out the bread to the children (mostly handicapped), he
44 cheers and bows from these
45 children. For the first time in his life, he understood
46 people could give up their
47 for a loaf of bread. He came to
48 how fortunate he was to be able to have a sound body, have a job, have a family, have the chance to
49 about food that didn't taste good, and have the many things that these people in front of him
50 dreamed of having. Perhaps life wasn't bad at all.
