Cherishing the ones.

Morning; with only my sis and I at home, I've got to do the cleaning! So I tried to make myself look better while cleaning, so here it is.

An eventful & meaningful day indeed! Met all the members at about 11.30am for lunch in school before we headed over to SWAMI Home. In case you don't know, it's an elderly home that is located around the Sembawang area.

The entrance.




Meeting room.
Reaching there at about 1 plus I assume, our group split up and interacted with the senior citizens! We sat there, chatted with them.
Such joys are something that can just never be replaced. Those smiles that you see on their faces, laughter heard and their eyes looking at you earnestly with warmth, doesn't that just make you go, "Awww" , tugging your heart strings at the same time?
I believe you would, if you truly felt it with your heart :)

Tea break time today was biscuits with barley drink for them!
Glad to see the students from some secondary schools coming forward as well, giving their time and sharing their love with the elderly. Your efforts have been appreciated :)
and it really made me felt that, "Hey, it doesn't matter how old you are, how rich/poor you are. It matters whether YOU are willing to do it." So why not let us just share this love and make the world a much happier place? :)
I believe that many people out there are doing it too!

After tea-break, was coloring session for the elderly. Barrett, Louis and I accompanied 2 female elderly, helping them out. I have to admit, the elderly that was sitting beside me and responding to me, I couldn't understand any single word at all!
I might have just sat there and do nothing, but this female elderly is AMAZING. She would just smile, hold on to my hand and just let you feel that she cares about you.
This taught me something: "You need no words to let others feel that you care, if your actions show that, what's the words for when talking is cheap?"

The 2 female elderly coloring!

Thanks for teaching me this auntie, and I would just want to thank you that you made this day of my life and AMAZING & FRUITFUL. We had to leave at 4, and that's when I hugged the lady before I officially waved goodbye to her. Before that, I'm truly grateful that she allowed me to take a photograph with her.
Thank you so much, I've learnt a lot.
This is how my day went, I shared my thoughts today.
Hope you've learnt and felt something too :)

Hi Auntie!

It's never too late to start caring, as long as you start. 
Leave no regrets.
goodbye.
