And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,
"Nothing, I just helped him cry"

Finally, Monday comes... Usually monday blues, but it turn out quite all alright. Cos tml National Day, no work... And most importantly, my work almost done.. Haha, so can relax a bit...
Erm, feel quite 'uneasy' going home so early. Thought of asking frens out after work, but seems everyone has activites planned... Anyway, is a good idea going back home to rest... so i can continue my journey after tml... Out of the sudden, feel like going out at this hour... Dun wish to stay at home cos nth to do beside sleeping... but also didnt have any idea to go...
Haiz, overall all are execuses... Why i feel like going out at this hour? And not staying at home resting... Where can i go? Watching fireworks??? Drink? or watching night movie??? or gather frens to chat or eat supper??? Honestly speaking, i dunno... I jus dun feel like being alone... I jus want enjoyment. I dun wan numbing myself, I want to wake up... I want to be who i was and not who i am... But can i???
Suddenly, i just feel like the bond bet my friends and i are parting far away... Didnt seems as close as we are, or as many as i haf... I haf this idea esp when i saw Tian's blog... she mentioned she walked at orchard alone, window shopping...while waiting for Ron... and we frens all busy not available when she feel needed... Just at this moment, i jus feel the same... I dunno when i haf this idea... Not sure is it some of my close frens are not ard, either they went to oversea to further their studies or working hard for their future... I remembered asking some friends how to define 'FRIEND'... and this is what i get from dictionary.com ---
"A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts."
"A person whom one knows; an acquaintance."
"A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade."
"One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group, cause, or movement: friends of the clean air movement."
So after reading , are u one of the above? A friend who can trust or just an acquaintance????
