Food from the hearts

How has everyone's day of fasting been so far? still good? Ha! I'm good. very good.

Few days ago, my family and I were planning to give out some grocery items, I called it as 'Food from the Hearts' to help out a little bit to the needy ones in our area anyway we can. So, all the family members, aunts, uncles were willing to donate something so as to make this Food From The Hearts program successful. I've been very excited and pointed myself as a volunteer. So I helped my mother out to buy some grocery items and packed them in one plastic bag to give to the poor people here.

Quite honestly, the poor old people here really live difficultly. But just a reminder to us that even though most of them here don't have the fraction of what we have, but they still had a big smile in their faces and thankful to God of the life that was given to them. They just don't have the time to whine about the hard life they had everyday (Ok, I admit I'm one of those kind of people that would complained and whined about the hard life.) :( .

All in all, it was really a good feeling to give out to them. The smiles and the tears of joy from the needy ones are enough already to be thankful to God of the blessings that we received everyday. After spending some times with them over the last few days, I have to tell you, I feel very wealthy. Bersyukur sangat-sangat rasanya...
