Prove Me Wrong!
Yesterday was reading the newspaper when 2 articles “slam” right into my face.
First was the article about the girl who hide a fetus inside a NTUC locker. And yet when she was arrested and question, it was reported that she simply smile over the whole issue. No regrets, no remorse!!! My goodness, whatever happen to a human emotion called “conscience”. How can one do such a thing and yet can go and have a peaceful sleep? Are we now coming to a stage where we emotions, our conscience, does not exist at all? Especially for this young girl, carrying the fetus for a few months and yet have no feelings to the fetus? Are we going to be so detach from our conscience that in days to come, we will not have qualms about doing evil? I pray that we will not come to such a stage!
But it was heartening to read in the Sunday New Paper about how a millionaire end up almost bankrupt due to the fact that he had overstretch himself for helping the orphans? Did you read of how he became rich through his hardwork and one day saw an orphan with some handicapped begging and decide to adopt him? Then as days and years go by, how he adopted 200 over orphans, almost all with some sort of physical handicapped, providing for them and eventually started a school for such students and drains all his monies until he was almost declare bankrupt? Thankfully an article was written about his work and the government and humanitarian group came in to provide fresh finance.
I doubt that I could be as generous as him, but I do hope to play my part in helping the underprivileged as much as I can. I do hope to contribute to the society in reaching out to such underprivileged.
But back to my blogging. Unfortunately people like this man are rare. My only wish for my readers is that they could contribute a little to the underprivileged so that their life would be a little better due to your contribution, not necessary money, could be any other means. So with this, I would like to end my thoughts for today, even though deep within, I know little will come out of this writing and I sincerely do hope that I am proven wrong for my thoughts.
