The Heart Of Man

Just now in the afternoon, after my exam, it was raining very very heavily...in few minutes...err, more like almost an hour of rain, one part of my college was flooded...the scene was magnificent, was like watching a miniature of 'The Day After Tomorrow', remember the scene where the wave was so high that it spill into the city? I saw the water from the 'longkang' spilling over to the road...like a wave form...cool!!

So the place was fully flooded, and a bus went through, it was until almost the tyre height of the bus!! Imagine how flooded that is...so we used an alternative road to avoid the flood, and we saw a proton saga zoom pass...without any hesitation...then straight went into the water and guess what...mati engine la...we were laughing...ridiculing him...

Not just that, even we reach our block, we still want to go down there to have a look an d see what happen to him...and see if anyone as ignorant as him...so we can ridicule their actions...

Seems like some people beat us to it...there was a small group of malays standing there watching the scene too...so i tot well, guess we are not the only 'sakai' people...but alas, i was wrong...very wrong...guess is hard to see the heart of man...

The group was not there to spectate and ridicule...but did a very noble thing...which i can say i am very proud of them and down with myself...we seem to look down on them...but in this situation, we lose hands down....what they did is offer service to push the car out of the water...in the rain some more...and what we do is stand and do nothing...what a pitiful sight for us...

what happen today is very meaningful to me...it makes me wonder...what makes a person tick? we definitely cant judge a person by its look, personality, their race, their 'kind' so to speak...a heart of man is indeed an enigma...
