After all


The recuperation has been settled since december 18th, even though I have 3 more months of total recuperation to go, I am starting to feel normal again. I came here to learn, so I did and will continue to.

On an abstract note, one day last year,
I went to the post office to mail a letter. While there, we met, and we talked as the rain began to come down heavy outside. at the same time, a parade began to pass by us, even in the rain, everyone was not even affected by the hard downpour as the golden Buddha passed by us with people in uniform... No one complained, all went as planned.

What must I have done when I was hit by that drunken motorbike driver?
Nothing could have prepared me for the circumstance.
It was entirely his fault by all standards.

No headlight, not his bike, no insurance, no money, and most of all no education.
We need to have our education to survive in this world; without it, we are left in the dark and utterly left alone and miserable.
Only experience can tell us this, no matter how painful it must be, we are here to help one another.
