1) I was taking a 20-mins walk to meet my mom yesterday, the sky was dark and the wind was strong. I walked faster but sadly, it rains and yeah... I am walking in the rain.
2) It's a wonderful feeling to be wet and having the rain showering upon me. For that moment, I felt closer to life, somehow the feeling is different.
3) As I walk along the road, I saw many motorcyclists got wet too. This made me remember that there are so many people who could not afford buying themselves a car, may be they could but because of the commitment for their family members, they decided to ride on a motorcycle.
4) Suddenly, I heard a car horn at me, a gentlemen offered me a ride saying "Do you want a ride?" I politely answered "I am heading another direction, thank you brother." Very nice of him to offer me the ride, very kind of him.
5) As the rain is getting heavier, I ran to a bus-stop to get shelter. With the heavy rainfall and strong wind, me and a few passengers eventually got wet too. It's fun to observe them. I guess we are all admiring people traveling in the car for they are protected from the heavy rainfall. Although the cars are just metres away, yet we can only observed the comfort those drivers had. As the saying goes, so near yet so far... a clear example of the rich and the poor.
6) Yesterday evening was a simple day but it's meaningful to me. I learned that:
(a) There are kind people in this world who are helpful
(b) There are many people struggling financially every single day
(c) To ride a motorcycle while raining is dangerous and it's certainly not fun to do that over the years
(d) Waiting for a bus when it rains is definitely not fun as you may get wet and need to endure the coldness when the wind is strong
(e) To be in wet condition and the need to endure the coldness in the bus is not a pleasant experience
7) Imagine people facing the above for years?
