Human always learn to appreciate things after they lost it.
Spent 2 weeks in Cambodia, made me realise that our pace are moving too fast. Maybe is due to environment factor that we could not slow down to appreciate things around us. Have you ever tried lying down on the grass patch looking at the sky? I would say I never did.
But I had found some other factors to appreciate people around me. Cambodia is a place that makes me re-learn a lot of things. Things like human relationship.
The first week in Cambodia, we walked them to school. The walk is about 10 minutes. Although I ever walked to school before which the journey took me 20 minutes. But I still will have alternative of taking bus to school on rainy days. But they do not have this privilege. It does not matter it is a rainy day or sunny day. Their transport is either by foot or by bicycle (for the higher grade). I love the times spent while painting the walls with them. And the times spent teaching them Chinese. They are so happy to be able to learn Chinese as a language and they attempted to communicate with us in Chinese too. That is something that touches my heart. Meals provided by the centre makes you feel at home. The local delight and drinks that we made for them, they love it and they asked for more.
Things might be changing after coming back from Cambodia. It might not be something that we know. But I believe, our attitude towards life would somehow change. Because I know, there is something always missing ever since I am back here. That will be the love that we received and given during the trip.
Thank you to the whole team including Miss Jamie & Mr Robert. Thank you for the 2 hosts and the kids back in Cambodia. Not forgetting all the organisations and people who had been doing the background work.
Without all of you, this trip will never be possible.
With all your love, this trip is an unforgettable and memorable one.
Give Thanks to Qing Fei De Yi's Peng You who put us at the Top Of the World
