A little story

Still haven't found "my" own sense and style of blogging. So it's really just full of random things that I wanna talk about every other day. But I have always believed that blogging is just jotting down random little things in life that you believe in or finding meaning in. So here goes my little story today.

I was waiting for my bus at the interchange when I saw an old lady running for her bus which was already going off. Fortunately, she got it and the bus stopped for her. I looked on further to realise she didn't board the bus! Instead, she stood in front of it and got the driver to wait.

So I looked somemore and I saw another old lady trying to run towards the bus but was at a very slow speed (probably coz her legs just can't support running anymore). When she finally reached the bus, the previous old lady who was already there smiled and handed her 3 plastic bags. She boarded the bus and the other looked on to see she sat down safely as the bus started to move.

They waved goodbye and the old lady who did not board the bus walked away with a smile.

These scenes kept replaying over and over again in my head and I was really genuinely touched by what I saw.

You know they probably are best friends since young and what's amazing is how long their friendship has been. And I was also amazed that she actually helped to carry her plastic bags and even chased the bus for her.

These are the little things in life that we should notice everyday. These little things will give us hope in life. Look around your surroundings and you'll chance upon many things you never once used to notice.

Find joy in life. Instead of waiting for it to find you.
