Once there was a girl, everyday she took care of her grandma who was paralyzed. She bathed her grandma, feed her..kept her company. But soon she got tired, so she asked her mom...
" How come I always have to take care of grandma? Why not my other siblings??"
Her mom replied, "So that you may get good deeds and become a good person."
So the girl continued taking care of her grandma..after awhile she got bored again and asked the same question. She got the same answer. Time and time, the girl really got fed up..so finally her mom explained...
When you were just a baby, our house got caught on fire. Everyone got out safely. You were the first thing I grabbed. But when we were outside, I didn't grab you, I just grabbed your pillow and blanket. When your grandma knew, she rushed back into the burning building to save you. Due to that, she's paralyzed for life.
The girl cried, and after that she never ever complained after that. She took very good care of her grandma..
I guess in order for us to do something to the best of our abilities, we must know WHY we are doing something. Now looking back..why did I join R2J4?? A question that's been playing in my head since the first time I set foot in Indonesia..and til now..I still have no answer.
To all my friends,
Know why you do something, so that it will benefit you...
P.S. Updates on R2J4 upon request only...
