Something worth sharing.......
A few days ago, i had lunch with an ex colleague at Qiji Century Square. I waited at our table while she went off to get her food. When she came back, I quickly stood up, unaware that my long, brown necklace was caught by the table and I forced myself to walk away. SNAP!!The necklace broke and the beads went jumping on the floor. Luckily it was not a busy lunch hour...and so...i was so shocked that I didnt know if i should feel embarassed too....well actually..i was more horrified than feeling paiseh...so i started to look around for my dispersed beads and what caught me by surprised was that the patrons there..some were eating while others juz idling...helped me to pick up all d beads including the broken ones!!Even d workers there did their part....i was really touched! Finally when all my beads were picked n surrended to me, one Auntie approached me n told me that she would be more than happy to string my beads back into a necklace...apparently she has learnt to do it somewhere..initially i refused since i tot i would juz wan to dump them away but she kindly insisted to do it for free n so we exchanged phone numbers. I looked at my colleague n was still too shocked to say anything..so touched by d kindness offered to me by d people around me...KUDOS to the crowd who was at Qiji Century Square on Tuesday, 15 Dec between 11.30 to 12 p.m. You guys really made my day!!!
And so today, i went to collect my necklace from Auntie Irene n she had beautifully piece the beads together. Im so happy,....on top of that, she gave me a pair of earrings and a handphone strap as presents. So nice of her. I had a short chat with her n wish her well before I left. i hope she will enjoy her holiday at Australia.
So..i guess if u have been making others around you to feel good, one day, others will do so to you out of d blue.Trust me!
