There was three friend having lunch together at a local Chinese restaurant, one guy and two girl. It was very crowded that day, no one seems to care about what's going on around them. Suddenly the guy spoke:
"Look. Can someone please go over and tell the lady how to poke the straw into the drink?". The other two friend looked over their shoulder. It was a Kiwi, elderly lady who is trying to peel of the plastic cover of her cup of bubble tea. Clearly, she has no idea of what she is suppose to do. One of the girl responded casually,
"maybe she just like to peel it off to drink?". But the other girl did not say any thing. Having see what was happening,
she stood up and walked over to the other table where the old lady was seated. She asked her politely if she is aware that the plastic cover do not have to be peel off. The lady looked at her blankly. Then, she showed the lady how to poke the straw into the drink quickly so that it will not spilled. The lady was really thankful of what the girl had taught her, cause she tried really hard to get a sip of that drink, and the cover is so hard for her to peel it off.
Happily, the girl then walked back to her table of friends, who wished that they could have done the same. There are so many times in the past where I could have just get my ass of the chair and help someone, instead of blabbering all about it.
Today, I wanna make a change. I wanna take a step, even if is small, to bring some changes into other people's life; and
not just talk about it.
So, if you were to be one of those 3 friends, which one would you be?
The one
who notices but not do any thing about it,
the one who know but just talk instead of taking actions,or
the one who don't say any thing but take immediate action to it?
