There is no
better feeling in life rather than helping someone. I’ll tell you a true story
that I am very proud of and will always be. November of 2011 a kid came to
Australia trying to earn a living. He was looking for a job for five months
straight, restless, continuously. He was asking for a chance to prove himself
that he can make a difference in this, for him, new country. Eventually after
five months he was called up for an interview, he proved that he can take the
job and two months later he got he’s second one. He did the impossible, only by
being himself, and show the people that hired him his appreciation of giving
him the opportunity that he was asking for by working hard and looking after
their businesses as they were his own. Six months later he eventually enrolled on
a course that he wanted but trying keeping two jobs and study was a little bit
tiring. One of his bosses after watching him working so hard in both jobs and studying
at the same time, offered him a full time job so he could study what he wanted
and be comfortable with his life without killing himself. In the end the kid
started thinking with a business mind by looking into career sites and by
watching what was happening around him. Unfortunately he realised that there
was no future in what he was studying so he had to weight his options and quit
studying with the result of devoting his life into the business world. I can
say now that it was the biggest turn in my life of leaving the Australian Institution
and focusing in the business world. I can say with pride and thankfulness that
it was the wisest choice that I took in my life. It opened my eyes and made me
see the world from another perspective. Three years later I went back home for
the first time since I’ve been here and I was pretty excited. My path was crossed
in Greece with a taxi driver that he told me his nephew was coming to Sydney a
couple of days after my returning date back here. Without giving it any thought
I wrote my contact number and my name on a piece of paper, fold it in half and
handed it over to the taxi driver. A couple of months later this beautiful
teenage couple arrived in Sydney with a hope and wish of earning a leaving in
Sydney. I am proud to say this story because both kids deserve the best in this
life and I am happy knowing that I helped them not to get through something like
I did. If you can help someone in order to make his life easier just do it.
Don’t think it over and say “I struggled why shouldn't he”. I can assure you
that there is no better feeling than knowing that you helped someone in this
life. Make that small act of kindness.
Cause only united,
we can make a difference.
