Being Different!

"Hi Uncle, would you mind drive me to 75 bedok food court and wait for me to buy a porridge for my friend who is sick right now, then go to her place at Paya Lebar." Actually I've prepared my heart to face a rude answer from the usual Singaporean taxi driver. But... no choice, I had to try it since I was rushing.

"Sure, let me drive you there" ... said the taxi driver. And along the way he was very kind, willing to wait for me about 5 minutes near the food court, talking with me nicely and politely. This taxi driver is... UNIQUE. I know a lot of common pressure make most of taxi driver here have the rights always to complain. But his attitude was totally different. It was a heavy rain outside, but his kindness in serving with his best really brightened up my day.
Some people always stand out from the crowd. It's hard to work out why; they just do life differently. They are unafraid to express who they are, they will stand up for what they believe no matter what people think of them and keep travelling.

"Ok, total is $11.25, you could just give me $11 will do" said the taxi driver. And I said, "Thank you so much for being so helpful, can I take your picture?"
"Ou .. why?" he asked curiously ... and I said with a big friendly smile, "Because you're unique, Uncle. That's what makes you stand out from the crowd and makes you different ... Thank you for letting me enjoy this journey".
