first time feeling troubled because of a meer stranger whom which i might never see again in my life.
today after some basketball, i went to the toilet at lot one to wash hand. Afterwhich i was tugging in my shirt outside the toilet when an idian man suddenly came up to me and this was what he said, sorry, can you spare me one dollar? i need it to get an mrt ticket. rather surprise and unwilling, i was like huh? and he took out a couple of coins and he said i need just one buck to get home. please. so i said, sorry no.
he quickly replied come one, we are all singaporeans and we should help each other right? look, its only one dollar not ten or twenty.
blah blah lahs. but in the end. i didnt give him. and he walked away like almost reprimanding me.
well, this matter somehow matters alot to me. i mean, if it were the past, i would have just given him and told myself i did a good deed. but i didnt. maybe i have grown cleverer? but also learnt to be more selfish.
thats bad. because the young, naive but good us is fading away with time. its a time when the more we know, the more selfish we become. what will i be like 10 years later? 20 and even till the day i die. will this selfishness just piles up? whats the use of growing up than? we will just get worse and worse in terms of moral values.
than another issue that the guy reminded me of.
Are singaporeans gracious? as in, we singaporeans really should help one another. whats more its one dollar. and i didnt even give. what would i do and what would i expect people to do to me if i were in his situation? wouldnt i be just equally desperate? and my fellow singaporean wouldnt even want to give me a buck for me to get home.
isnt there a serious problem? perhaps its just me. i hope it is. but if you were me, would you have given that dollar? should i have given?
lets fall in love
