The above quote is popularized by the movie
Jerry Maguire. I watched Jerry Maguire long time ago but I don’t remember what
the movie is about. Hahaha. I just googled this expression and found out that
it was popularized that way. The quote just popped out on my mind the moment this
‘thing’ happened to me.
It was an ordinary evening on weekdays. I was on my way to
Jurong Point and I took the 181 bus to get there. When I first entered the bus,
the 50 something year old bus driver uncle greeted me: “Hello, ni hao”
I was stunned. My reaction that time was replying him with, “Halo
uncle, ni hao”. Luckily I was still able
to reply his hospitality. I was the only one who got on the bus that time. So I
kinda feel like an important person :p
Then again, when we all reached our destination, he said “Thank
you” when we got off the bus. How sweet isn’t he? Instead of the passengers, he’s
the one who said thank you. I was really touched by this uncle’s graciousness
considering on how people in here usually act. Not that I was being mean or
what, but that’s just the reality in here. People are very hard to give their
smile to others. So when someone greets you nicely, it’s really a rare occasion.
Not everyone gets a privilege like me that time.
With only a simple word: “hello” and your most sincere
smile, the world is already become a better place (for me at that time). So,
care to give your best smile to the world?
