<\/a><\/p>\nI noticed how he had built a partition at one corner of the restaurant. It is fully walled except for the frontage which is draped nicely with slide curtains so that it is easier for him to come in and out of the room which has now become his home. My friend and other workers at the restaurant take turn to attend to his needs. This friend of mine confessed how there are times when he gets quite upset especially when he is too tired and this man demands quite too much of him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know when you have worked your asses off the whole day \u2013 running the things around and making sure everything goes smoothly at work and by the end of the day you are so damn tried but this guy still demands quite too much of you, you\u2019ll tend to lose it at times\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut of course the feeling of guilt would come to me later and I\u2019d apologize to him – every time\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
He told me how they took him in and cared for him totally out of nothing but solely for the fact that he needs people to take care of him.<\/p>\n
Still quite in disbelief at the degree of selflessness and how they sacrifice so much of their beings for a stranger, I prodded \u201cdoes he in any way related to any of you, probably to your boss?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNope. He was a stranger. We found him and decided to take him in and cared for him because he needed it\u201d he replied as if it was the most normal thing to do.<\/p>\n
I looked at the room to where he had now retreated and was probably soundly asleep. For a moment I tried to think of all the things that I had done for others, things that I had done out of selflessness. There weren’t much.<\/p>\n
I returned home feeling so small and insignificant to the universe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
So I am back in my hometown Keningau and was having a drink with a friend at a restaurant where he actually worked last night. I couldn\u2019t help but noticing that there was a man who sat crumpled in a wheelchair right in the corner of the small restaurant. He\u2019d look at every passer-by and every now and then he\u2019d look at us who\u2019d break into laughter because there were just too many funny things to talk about. Then I…<\/p>\n
