ManyyearsagoIlivedinawesterncountry.Igotmyfirstjobinthe...

Many years ago I lived in a western country. I got my first job in the city and I was excited to go to work by bus!

    I left home each morning in time to catch the 8.05 bus from the main road. One morning I could see the bus approaching. I could also see an elderly lady walking with a lovely dog beside her. There were some teenagers behind her. 

    The bus arrived and we got on. Unlike in eastern countries, only eight passengers were permitted to travel standing. I was inside the bus when the conductor called, "Only eight standing passengers! Could the last one to get on please get off?" I saw those teenagers inside, right in front of me!

    I thought that it was me who now had to get off. I turned and saw the elderly lady with her dog. They were about to get off instead. I moved quickly to get in front of her. I encouraged her to stay, and got off. To my surprise, when I moved past her, I realized that she was blind! Her lovely companion was her guide dog! 

    Well, I eventually got to the office. After the day's work, I went to the bus stand near my office to make the return journey. What a pleasant surprise! The lady and her dog were there! I was really pleased because I would get a better chance to speak with her. I started the conversation and she recognized my Asian accent! She asked if I was the same person who helped her that morning. Amazing! From then on it was a long happy conversation.

    The bus arrived. We got on, and were able to choose any seat as the bus was empty. Our journey started, and so did our friendship.
