Have you been beaten by your fellow countrymen?
Foreigners say who visited the country that the
Filipino is the most hospitable people in the world. Would you believe in that?
It’s more than in the Philippines isn’t it? But, do you really care publicly
showing your cool gadgets knowing that you are in the Philippines? With my
unusual working time schedule from 3AM to 12noon and leave the house before
dawn, I don’t think I am safe.
Are people naturally born good or bad? I admit I’m
afraid every time I step out, particularly December sickness where most cases
of snatching and theft.
It’s not safe anymore. But what happened
recently is extraordinary. My nephew would like to take his vacation and stay
at my place since he doesn’t have school. So I met him in MOA and rode cab back
home. By mistake he fell his phone inside the cab and only noticed until we get
home. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get the plate number. So we called his
phone and no one bothered to answer our calls. Normally during this kinda occurrence
never expect that you have your phone back. But we never lose hope and kept on
calling until someone answered the call after an hour.
He said that he noticed vibrations at the back
seats but he just ignored. He would like to meet us and return the phone but he
was somewhere in Quezon City. So I told him to meet in Shopwise Makati around
9PM so he has the time to travel.
The cab arrived and parked nearby gas station,
he let us in and told us about the vibrations coming from the phone and
ignored. He was thinking of just humps since he was driving.
“I don’t need
it. It’s not worth to make me rich. I been driving for many years and returned
all the losses. This is not the first time, in fact it’s the fifth time.”, the
driver said.
We owe a
lot from him and he did not accept the small cash as reward. He just told us to
pay the gasoline consumed en route to Makati from QC. Then he left and told us
to take care of our belongings next time since all taxi drivers are not like him.
To you Mr. Reynante L. Reguya of Ira and AC
Trans with plate number UVR-759. Thank you so much for your kindness and blessed
heart. I hope all people like you.
