Yesterday I watched Faith and Hope (or is it Hope and Faith?) on Star World, and I'm not at all a fan of this sitcom, I just came across it while flippin thru channels. I have literally watched it about once or twice this year, and perhaps once or twice last year.
Anyway... something Hope (or was it faith?) said carried massive amount of truth i thought.
"It is not about what you get, it is about what you give.."
This morning, while rushing to go to office after my daily quick breakfast stop, an angel demonstrated those words quoted above.
there was a bloddy car semi-blocking my car and i couldnt get out of it. seeing me in distress, she patiently stood by my car and helped navigate my way through the impossible space and wallah! i managed to get out and reached the office in time!
She didnt get anything besides my thankful wave to her before i drove off, but had she cared about "giving" she wouldnt have demonstrated the act of a true samaritan to me.
I am very guilty of the same feeling sometimes, thinking what will i get out of this and that. but no, hope (or faith) was right. It is about what u give and have given that truly counts.
PS: but when someone gives u something, do appreciate it and say thanks dammit! =p

we should say thanks to anything... even if we've been given nothing..
true2.. sometimes when i say thanks to people, they are rather surprised. either they dont get 'thanks' always or it is just not our culture here in Malaysia, to say thanks just to be polite. =p
