Little return for little good things

Today is Father and Mother left us 1,363/1036 days.


This morning while I was driving at Ang Mo Kio street 62, a very young lady flag my taxi. She sat in and asked, uncle, do you know where is Pasir Ris ITE ? Can you send me there ? I looked at her and said no problem. I think she is about 18 to 21 of age, like fresh from school, speak very soft and looks nerves. After a while, she asked, uncle, from here to there about how much ? I said now is peak hour, got 35% extra, quite difficult to estimate. She like quite worried and said, more than $20 dollars ? I said no la, anyway don't worry la.

When we reached ITE, total metre fare is $17.85, she took out 1 ten dollars and 2 five dollars and gave it to me and said, actually I come here and take something, can I borrow your handphone ? I handed my hp to her and she called someone to inform she is here already. She then told me early on she took a taxi to work and left her hp in the taxi. a girl picked her hp but did not give it to the drive, when she call her own number, the girl asked her to come to ITE and get back her hp. I told her you are very lucky, not many people will return a picked hp.

About 5 minutes, a malay ITE studen came and returned her hp to her. She then said she got no more money to pay for the return trip. I said ok la, I send you back la.

On the way back, someone called her, from their conversation, I heard her telling her friend she got noy enough money to pay the taxi fare and asked to lend her money........

While almost reaching her working place, I noticed she still look worried, and asked her, so you got no more money, then how to buy lunch ? she kept quiet. I took a 5 dollars note and give it to her, buy your lunch. She kept saying, never mind, I can get form my friend, I pretend to drop the note so that she will pick up, I then asked her to keep it. When reached her place, the metre fare was $32.15, I said, never mind, I charge you $15, you may go. She say thank you uncle a few times and got out of my taxi, she stand there until I drove off.

After changing shift, I went to buy 4D, hoping good people got good return.

7.00pm, radio announced 4D results. Hee...hee...hee... I kena 3rd prize, 2 big 2 small iBET $106.00

So, do more good thing, you sure to get good return. If return don't come, don't worry, wait, because wait long sure have.

May The Lord Bless all our family members. Amen.
