look me in the eyes,and you'll catch a glimpse of truth.-----<3-----<3-----i wonder how he's doing up there.and i really, really miss him.hell yeah, i miss my grandfather.but finally, he's living under one roof with his parents, so, way to go, yeah man, grandpa!i'm rooting for you! woots!and yes, monday is a holiday! free time!i've no idea how to spend it, but i guess it's gonna be a place where i can do my homework in peace and feel the beauty of nature surrounding me.my dad told me a story today, and i was reflecting on it.i shall tell you what the whole story is about.in malaysia, taxis are really common, it's everywhere.this man is on a business trip to malaysia.once he got out of the airport, he hailed for a taxi, and soon, one came in his direction. the driver offered to help put the luggage in his boot. gladly, and impressed, he smiled and soon, they were on the way to the man's hotel.during this period of travelling, the taxi driver asked the man,"Good day, mister! How are you today?"the man was surprised, and he mustered a smile that was understood as "I'm doing great." laughing, the taxi driver began asking him general questions, such as, "How's your business going? Do you have a family? Where do you live?"the man was not irritated. he was actually impressed with the driver's ability to warm him up.so he answered those questions truthfully and smiled a lot.now it was the man's turn to start the conversation with the driver.he asked, " how do you feel about your job as a taxi driver?" the driver let out a humble laugh, and began talking in an easy tone. he said this:i feel proud of my job! it allows me to meet people from all walks of life and it is an honour for me, partly because i can promote my mother country to them, and introduce them where are the place to go shopping, or for good food, so on and so forth. i feel proud to do this and certainly, i hope that they feel comfortable as well. it is actually a very honourable and worthy job, to think about it. it's beautiful.after hearing this, the man was very impressed. and gradually, they established a friendship. they both exchanged contacts, and the man promised to bring the driver on a tour in his own mother country if there was a chance. when they reached the destination, the man got off and thanked the driver. not too long after, the man returned for another business trip. he hailed for a taxi, and struggled to put his luggage into the boot. the driver came out not long after, ensuring that his boot wasn't scratched and the luggage were in place. the man said nothing, so did the driver. when they were inside the taxi, the driver asked where the man's destination was. the man replied.after that, no conversation occured between the two men.the man felt uncomfortable, and decided to strike up a conversation. it was like a Q & A session. i give you the answer to your question, and that's it. finally, the man couldn't take it any longer and asked the question, " How do you feel about your job?"this was the driver's reply:AIYAH! it's the same old thing, driver here and there, ferry passengers around. it's so boring, and you can never make big money from it. all you do all day is taking orders, drinking kopi-o, running all around the country, make me so tired.the man said nothing afterwards. he smiled his thanks to the driver when they reached and immediately got out of the cab.-----<3after i heard this story, i realised that two people, even though working the same job, can have very different thinking. one accepts his job and sees it as a glorious job, to be able to spread the values and culture of his beautiful country to othersand the other sees is as a job that has no meaning.it's so different.and i wish i can see it in the first driver's point of view.maybe it teaches us that in everything we do, there is something that is beautiful in it, something that we can enjoy and learn from.and of course, it depends on how one sees it.so which way you wanna see? the good one or bad one?it's up to you to decide.-----<3to all of you out there,tu amor.
