Dear depression,

Today I was supposed to go for a girl guide meeting, well, I felt bad because I didn't go as promised. So sorry.

My mum was really depressed. I know she is crying silently these days and I felt so bad. She wanted air and space, so she got the idea o catch a movie. I don't dare to say no, because I know she wants to forget about that tradegy. So after finishing up the stuff, we went to Mid Valley. We are not in the mood to shop, so just walk walk walk.

I tried to move on to happier subjects so she can feel more eased. Anyway,  we still bought something.

Then I saw this beggar lady in The Gardens. 

I studied her. Her shoes are worn, so are her clothes, all raggy. Her hair is grey and loose, and her face, she is one of those people who will make u feel so pity when you see her. I bought some food and water for her, when I approached her, her grey eyes were so blank, she kept saying "no need to give me " in Chinese. I felt so heartbroken, why is this old beggar lady alone in the shopping mall? I gave her a last long look and walked away. I looked back, she just stares at me blankly.

Then after having dessert with mummy, well we rarely have desserts, just to cheer my mum up I guess. I walked pass by the lady again, she stared at me. She didn't eat any of  the food I gave her, yet she kept them safely in an orange bag. I walked away heavily, what can I do? I asked myself? Send her to the old folks' ? And I am now here blogging with regret. I should have called some club for wandering people or send her to some where better. She looks homeless, she only have a bag. Does she have a sickness? She keeps shaking her legs. I'm so worried where will she be sleeping.


As long as you are under the sky, you can do lots and experience miracles. 

Pray for this lady, and I hope to meet her again. And I will do something. Tonight may you be well.
