ytd I went for my facial at my aunt's shop... My cousin happens to have a coffee stall nearby at the Bkt Timah Wet Market, so I went to visit her...
Since it was alrdy afternn, business was slow so I had the time to chat with her... Glad to see that both her n her husband's wking happily tog. But I also noticed this old woman who was collecting cups there.
Cousin told me she got a sad story... When I say she's old, she really is! She's a petite woman who's got white snowy hair, and is bent with age... Walks slowly... cos of her age - 82! Over 80 and she still has to wk! Little did I noe its cos her children refused to give her money... They refused to answer her calls. Even her husband who's old like her... is also wking...
This kind of story always make me sad... There are so many different kinds of people in this world... There are those who are poor, but yet are happy becos they learn to live with their lot. Make the best out of what they have and still be happy becos they noe how to be content.
But there are also some, who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth. Maybe even gold... and waste their money on pricely possessions, drinks, women, and the what-nots. And in e meantime, waste their life away too...
This world is sometimes really unfair isn't it? Some people just don't deserve what life has dealt them...
