Life transformers
I think the variety show "Life transformers" hosted by christoper lee and quan yi feng is terrific! Every week when i watched it, it reminds me that i am very fortunate and that i should be contented with what i have. The previous episode focuses on a nine yr old girl whose mother is unable to walk psychologically (I shall return to this pt later) and hence spends all her time on the bed and father who earns $200-$300 per mth from the selling of newspapers. Her father had difficulties doing other jobs as he had amputated one of his legs due to diabetes and he is not highly educated. As for her mother, she had a fall about nine yrs back and from then on, she did not dare to walk anymore. Why did i say that her mother cannot walk psychologically instead of physically? It was so obvious from the show that she can move her legs when she was on the bed and she can sit upright which means her spine is okay. Her psychological fear was so great that she held on tightly to quan yi feng when they placed her on the wheelchair. As a result, the little girl was the one who suffer the most. She has to clear the bowels of her mother, cook and do housework everyday despite having to study. A nine yr old ger should not be going thru all these. Despite all these that she is going thru, she did very well in sch. What i admire her the most is her attitude towards life despite her situation. She is very optimistic and contented with her life despite all that happen. My mum say i should be ashamed of myself bcos a nine yr old kid can cook unlike me. I dun feel ashamed by the fact that i cannot cook but i feel ashamed for the fact that i always whine about life even though i am already very fortunate. But its the truth, life is nvr fair. And we all have to learn to accept the truth like brainless people can also earn big bucks, etc. I am still learning to accept the truth bcos only by accepting, will one find true happiness. But anyway, i seriously think those who owns branded bags even before you all starts to work should consider donating yr money to the unfortunate since you all got so much cash to spare. And also i really hope that a kind soul psychologist can help the child's mother get rid of her psychological fear and enable her to wallk again. I think that is the only wish the little ger has right now.
